WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION (WTO)

Following World War II, the major economic powers of the world negotiated a set of rules for reducing and limiting trade barriers and for settling trade disputes. These rules were called the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). Headquarters to oversee the administration of the GATT were established in Geneva, Switzerland. Periodically, rounds of multilateral trade negotiations under the GATT were carried out. The 8th round begun in 1986 in Punta del Este, Uruguay, and dubbed the Uruguay Round, was concluded on Dec. 15, 1993, when 117 countries completed a new trade-liberalization agreement.

Software

A substantial proportion of information can be digitized. It seems likely that soon, for example, any type of information that can be perceived, i.e. seen, heard, felt, smelt or tasted, will be reducible to a collection of bits. Once in digital form, the information in question can be stored, processed and displayed by a computer. Furthermore, it can readily and rapidly be transmitted from one computer to any other computer regardless of distance, political frontiers, and physical obstacles. From a digital point of view, there is absolutely no distinction between text, sounds, graphics, photographs, music, animations, videos and…software. To include software in our list, however, may seem rather odd. Why this is so? Computer programs are, after all, only digitized information like the other examples. However, there is one vital difference between software and the rest. While text, sounds, graphics, as well as the other examples given above, are generally passive in nature, software, by contrast, is essentially active. It is information with attitude! As Hart reminds us, "Computer programs are not only texts: they also behave". Software is both form and substance, both symbolic and functional, it both "is" and "does". For this reason, software is conceptually very challenging.

WEBSITE LEGAL CHECKUP

The explosive development of the Internet and electronic commerce has demonstrated that a corporate website can be extremely valuable. Although Internet exchanges of information and communications occur in cyberspace, they may have real, tangible consequences in the physical world. This means significant legal consequences can arise from the browsing or use of a corporate website.

As with any other interaction, website activities or information may be the basis for a damages claim against a company. Similarly, a company may wish to restrict what a user does with information obtained from a corporate website. In short, a company should view its website like any other communication channel. Therefore, we recommend that a corporate website include specific terms and conditions applicable to the browsing and use of the website.

The author argues that website terms and conditions
