Misappropriation Trade secret misappropriation is different from violations of other IP rights, since by definition trade secrets are secret, while patents and registered copyrights and trademarks are publicly available. Unlike other forms of IP [2], trade secret is basically a do it yourself form of protection. You do not register with the government to secure your trade secret. You simply keep the information confidential and personal. Trade secret protection lasts for as long as the secret is…

Kersey, 162 So.3d 1104, 1106 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2015). Because these facts are not present Walsh’s…

I have a strong argument that the government should not be able to invade my privacy and look at my information on my phone or other people’s phones. Spying on people’s phones is an invasion of their privacy. Even though it maybe useful for spying for terrorist reasons itś still wrong to spy on someone. Spying on someone is invading their personal space or their privacy. Gathering data from citizens’ cell phones, even if only briefly, may violate the Constitution. Americans would consider…
