The odds are in favor of Hunter Biden in imminent lawsuit against computer repairman

[pyetro]

Right-wingers argue that the computer repairman acquired the laptop as abandoned property, but according to this legal analyst, only the hardware and not the data belongs to the repairman in this case. The repairman cannot use Hunter Biden's copyrighted images, emails, etc. The only permissible action the repairman could have taken with the data is to recover it:

Both the Mac Shop contract and the Delaware Code do not resolve the question as to what exactly Biden might have abandoned in his failure to pick up his laptop and hard drive. The physical devices are one thing, but what about the underlying data? The Mac Shop’s contract is limited to “equipment” and does not extend to intangible or intellectual property. With respect to any data on which Biden has a copyright claim, for example, it does not seem reasonable that Biden granted anything more than a limited use license to access data for the purpose of recovering it.

To the extent that the Mac Shop or a third party distributed any content protected by copyright, they may have infringed Biden’s distribution and public performance rights by releasing the content. The alleged raunchy, 12-minute video showing Biden smoking crack while engaged in a sex act, and the other sexually explicit images, may be subject to copyright protection (although Biden may not hold the rights associated therewith if he did not record the video or take the pictures).

If any of Biden’s data not subject to copyright was stored locally (i.e. on the hard drive itself, not exclusively on the cloud) and accessible without a password, the Mac Shop and other third parties accessing the material may be in the clear. But it is likely that Biden’s files were protected by a password. Biden may have provided that password to the repair shop—but again, that would have been for the limited purpose of recovering the data.

If a computer repair person views illegal activities taking place on a computer he or she is fixing they are well within their rights to report that to the authorities...which is what happened. In some States they could even be charged with a crime for not doing so!

Wasn't the original response from the left that the laptops never belonged to Hunter Biden?

The author of that piece is basing a large part of his argument on Hunter having "copywrite" rights to the materials on the computer which means nobody could use them. Such a copywrite hardly protects someone who has evidence of a crime on their computer which is seen by someone else.

This is what desperate attorneys do. Oh yeah, the biden camp is scared. They know what's in there, the child porn, ukraine bribes, etc.

He reported it to the FBI you moron...........

 

[JohnDB]

Repairman became suspicious of the information on the laptop and informed the authorities as required...because if he didn't he would become an "accessory after the fact".....and share in Hunter's punishment.

Who wants that sort of nonsense in their life?

So you are saying that Hunter got federal copyrights on his emails and the photos of him committing illegal actions? When did he do this? I haven’t heard of anyone ever getting copywrites on emails. Plus unless I am mistaken, he would have had to take out a copywrite on each individual email and photo. That would cost millions of dollars since a single copywrite application runs between forty five and a hundred twenty five dollars .

The horrid material on his laptop can't be copyrighted. It's egregious and illegal.

If Isaac's case will rest on proving that Hunter Biden committed a crime in his laptop content then...

Sounds like you're saying Isaac is fucked. You can't take that back.
Your repair wingnut would be better off if this whole thing was fake.

Another message board lawyer pretending content in Hunter Biden's laptop was "illegal" (note they never tell us what specifically was illegal).
Is this where you pretend he had pictures of naked minors?

dont care one way or the other,, the only way hunter wins is to admit its his,, and if he does that means hes a pedophile and foreign agent along with a dozen other disturbing things,,

Why would Delaware laws affect the actions taken in New Jersey? What sort of stupid are these idiot liberals trying to sell now?

When did Hunter register his copyright with the USCO?

So why did he report it Guiliani then?
