He helps small businesses, startups, and in e-commerce and digital marketers and inventors in their quest to obtain patent protection. Along with his team of attorneys. He counsels individual inventors and startups regarding the best steps to take for patent protection and when patent protection is available. Over the past 28 years, he has obtained more than £2,000 for his clients. And Rich is the host of the Innovations and Breakthroughs podcast and is the author of The Consumer Guide to Obtaining a Patent, published by the American Bar Association. So Rich, welcome to the podcast.Rich 00:00:46  Thanks so much, Josh. Thanks. Thanks for the warm introduction. And and really great to be on your podcast.Josh 00:00:51  Rich, I'm happy to say that we are a part of that number of 2000 plus, you know, patent successful patterns that you've been able to obtain and counting. Right.Rich 00:01:03  And counting.Josh 00:01:03  Yep. So thank you for your help and helping us get some of those design patterns that we've received for our business.Josh 00:01:10  So rich. Absolutely is the man.Rich 00:01:12  Absolutely. My pleasure. It's really exciting to see kind of what we're creating there in your company in terms of, asset value and protection, you know, against competitors. So, it's really cool. And someday we'll, we'll do a, you know, a Harvard business case study of some kind, to, you know, to take a look at what we've created here. I think it's pretty awesome.Josh 00:01:39  Well, I think that's the hope for both you and I that we're creating some significant value in the long run. Now, Rich, I shared this on previous podcast episodes as I shared some of the mistakes that I've made along my journey. One of those mistakes that I've made was not getting IP protection whatsoever for many of our products for four years, right? We literally went for in our business for four years before, you know, you and I fortunately met. And you're like, dude, you've got to start doing something here. And we had a great conversation.Josh 00:02:13  And now that we started getting copyrights issued for all of our products and then design design patents for some of our products, it's allowed us to actually protect more of our products, because prior to that, as many sellers know, as soon as you launch a product on Amazon, it's months, you know, sometimes as quick as a month later, sometimes 3 to 6 months later, you've got somebody copying your idea and being able to have something to protect yourself and even potentially get some of those other people knocked off or, you know, shut down their listings, I think is essential, especially as Amazon and e-commerce in general becomes more and more competitive. Would you agree with that, Rich?Rich 00:02:56  Yeah, absolutely I agree, and it's funny you mentioned that, like, you, you could put something up there for a month and then you'll find the competition and it's, it's almost as if. Well, I mean, it is as if there are tools that say, you know, copy this or copy that.Rich 00:03:10  There are analytics tools that, that, that point people in the direction of you when you're doing well. And so it's it's almost as if you're the software telling people, copy this guy, you know, and and so it really is, important to create as much of a moat as possible around, around what you're doing to prevent other people from, from copying you. and, you know, it's interesting to, like, in your case, like, a lot of your products are kind of content oriented, that copyrights are an option. for a lot of product ideas, copyrights are not really an option. They don't really provide, you know, covers don't provide protection for ideas. They provide protection for content type expression and then design patents, which you mentioned. Two are for the ornamental appearance for a product. The the look of a product. and I'd say the design patents are an issue for a lot are not an issue or an option for a lot of, sellers. Like if you have a product that has a unique look to it, then design patents are a good way to prevent other people from knocking you off by making a product that looks just like yours.Rich 00:04:24  So, you know, they're both effective tools, for protecting you on Amazon. So, yeah, I agree with all of that.

Every masterpiece you've ever consumed likely passed through a licensing agreement first. That catchy song in your favorite commercial? Licensed. The superhero logo on your coffee mug? Licensed. The technology powering your smartphone? Licensed hundreds of times over. Licensing represents the hidden architecture behind innovation empires, allowing creators to extend their reach without surrendering control. Unlike selling your intellectual property outright, licensing lets you maintain ownership while granting permission for others to use it under specific conditions – essentially renting out a room while remaining the landlord.The potential of licensing spans virtually every form of intellectual property. Patents enable inventors to collect royalties from global manufacturers without running factories. Trademarks allow fashion brands and sports teams to appear on merchandise worldwide. Copyrights drive music, publishing, and streaming industries. Even carefully protected trade secrets can be licensed as valuable know-how.But successful licensing requires methodical preparation. You must clearly establish ownership, precisely define scope, protect confidentiality during negotiations, package assets for seamless transition, establish defensible royalty models, and determine governance structures. Finding the right licensees demands strategic targeting – from identifying companies in similar patent classes to exploring industry standards programs and attending specialized trade shows.The negotiation process benefits from structured frameworks: separating positions from interests, understanding your alternatives, presenting multiple equivalent offers, and stress-testing deals through financial modeling. Equally important is recognizing red flags: licensees who overpromise, resist transparency, fight performance standards, demand excessive exclusivity, or operate in challenging regulatory environments.Remember that licenses exist in dynamic markets with changing conditions. Know when to renegotiate (when fundamental assumptions shift), when to walk away (when partners consistently underperform), and when litigation becomes necessary (when your rights are genuinely threatened).Want to develop your own IP protection strategy?

The recent dismissal of the Librarian of Congress and the Register of Copyrights by President Trump raises fundamental questions about the scope of the President’s removal authority and the constitutional status of these offices. Do these officials exercise executive power such that they must be removable at will? Or has Congress validly restricted removal in pursuit of independence? This panel will examine the legal and historical foundations of both positions, tracing the development of the Library of Congress and the Copyright Office, their placement within the legislative branch, and the President’s authority to remove them—if any. The discussion will examine whether these offices lie within the President’s removal authority or whether Congress has validly constrained that power. Our panel will consider the constitutional text, structural implications, and historical practice governing the removal of these unique officers. Featuring: Prof. Anne Joseph O'Connell, Adelbert H. Sweet Professor of Law, Stanford Law School Zvi Rosen, Associate Professor, UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law Devin Watkins, Attorney, Competitive Enterprise Institute [Moderator] Robert Rando, Partner, Patrick Doerr

In 1710, the British Parliament passed a piece of legislation entitled An Act for the Encouragement of Learning. It became known as the Statute of Anne, and it was the world's first copyright law. Copyright protects and regulates a piece of work - whether that's a book, a painting, a piece of music or a software programme. It emerged as a way of balancing the interests of authors, artists, publishers, and the public in the context of evolving technologies and the rise of mechanical reproduction. Writers and artists such as Alexander Pope, William Hogarth and Charles Dickens became involved in heated debates about ownership and originality that continue to this day - especially with the emergence of artificial intelligence.

Rony and Ted welcome Angela Dunning, an attorney at Cleary Gottlieb specializing in AI and copyrights. With Charlie on vacation, they switched up the format, bringing Angela in at the top of the show, lacing news tidbits throughout. The big news this week was Google I/O, highlighting the $250/month Gemini Ultra model and the Veo 3 video generation tool, now offering voice. Rony expresses a bit of cynicism as Google once again re-re-enters XR. The conversation veers into the philosophical and legal future of machine authorship and sentience. Angela draws on her experience litigating the “monkey selfie” case to explain current copyright limitations, but notes shifting standards, including a recent case where an entirely AI-generated image was granted protection, due to extensive human control. She emphasizes the importance of human authorship, distinguishing between derivative output and directed creation.Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: For an instructive contrast of approach, there is the lawsuit filed yesterday by Shira Perlmutter, on the question of who is in charge of the United States Copyright Office, in which the plaintiff identifies herself as Register of Copyrights and Director of the U.S. Copyright Office, while naming the defendants Todd Blanche “in his capacity as the person claiming to be Acting Librarian of Congress” and Paul Perkins “in his capacity as the person claiming to be the Register of Copyrights.” Just because Donald Trump says he's taken a job away from someone and given it to someone else, that doesn't mean change is reportable as a fact in its own right.

This Day in Legal History: Brady v. MarylandOn May 13, 1963, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark ruling in Brady v. Maryland, fundamentally reshaping criminal procedure and the obligations of prosecutors. The case involved John Brady, who was convicted of murder in Maryland state court. Although he admitted involvement, he claimed he did not commit the actual killing. During the trial, the prosecution withheld a statement from Brady's co-defendant that supported this claim. After Brady was sentenced to death, his attorneys discovered the statement and appealed, arguing that suppression of such exculpatory evidence violated his constitutional rights.The Supreme Court agreed, holding in a 7–2 decision that suppression by the prosecution of evidence favorable to an accused who has requested it violates due process, regardless of whether the prosecution acted in good faith or bad faith. This principle became known as the Brady Rule, and it remains one of the cornerstones of a fair trial in American criminal justice. The Court emphasized that the goal of a trial is not to win a case but to ensure justice is done.The Brady decision led to a broader understanding of prosecutorial obligations and placed enforceable limits on government discretion. Over time, it has been extended and clarified through subsequent cases, shaping what material must be disclosed and when. Still, Brady violations continue to arise in courts, often forming the basis for appeals or post-conviction relief. The ruling reflects a deep constitutional commitment to due process and underscores the state's duty to act not only as an advocate but also as a guardian of fairness.President Donald Trump abruptly fired Shira Perlmutter, the Register of Copyrights, on May 10, 2025, just two days after also dismissing Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden, who had appointed Perlmutter in 2020. The U.S. Copyright Office confirmed the termination via a statement, noting that Perlmutter received an email from the White House informing her that her role was ended “effective immediately.” The administration has not publicly explained the firing, and Perlmutter has not commented.The move came shortly after the Copyright Office released a report addressing how generative AI models interact with copyright law. The report urged caution on government intervention and emphasized the importance of voluntary licensing systems. It drew a line between research-related uses of AI, which are unlikely to harm copyright holders, and commercial uses that replicate copyrighted content, especially when done through unauthorized access—arguing the latter may exceed fair use.Rep. Joe Morelle (D-N.Y.) condemned the dismissal, calling it an "unprecedented power grab" and linking it to Perlmutter's refusal to support Elon Musk's push to use copyrighted material for AI training. The timing of her removal, coming one day after the report's release, has intensified speculation about political motives behind the firing.Trump Terminates US Copyright Office Director in New Shakeup (1)Everything is bigger in Texas, including policy failures. The latest—an expensive exercise in public policy theater that trades taxpayer dollars for ideological victory laps. With Governor Greg Abbott poised to sign Senate Bill 2 into law, Texas is now on track to funnel $1 billion away from public education and into private schools, starting in the 2026-27 school year. And make no mistake: this isn't about "school choice"—it's about abandoning public schools under the rhetorical cover of parental empowerment.Supporters say it's about letting families choose the education that “fits their child's path,” but the real fit here is between a regressive policy and a Republican donor wishlist. Up to 20% of the funds will be available to families earning over $160,000—so yes, the state is subsidizing private tuition for households that already have the means. Meanwhile, the public schools left behind are told to make do with less.Texas already ranks 38th in the nation in per-student funding, and public schools are still reeling from the $7.6 billion lawmakers withheld last session to hold them hostage for this very proposal. Districts have been cutting staff, closing campuses, and hiring uncertified teachers to stay afloat. Now they're being told they can have their crumbs—so long as a chunk of the loaf goes to private institutions that aren't accountable to the same standards, can't be compelled to admit students, and won't have to administer the same state tests used to judge public schools.This is a policy that spends public money without public accountability. It privileges private choice over public obligation. And it's being sold with the same warmed-over talking points that ignore what the data keeps telling us: vouchers don't reliably improve academic outcomes, especially not for the low-income students lawmakers claim to be championing.But the most corrosive effect isn't just fiscal—it's philosophical. When a state government diverts taxpayer dollars to schools that don't have to serve every child, it's not expanding opportunity. It's signaling that public education is optional, a backup plan, a place for the kids who didn't win the voucher lottery.Texas isn't innovating—it's retreating. And when the dust settles, it won't be the parents cashing the checks who pay the highest price. It'll be the millions of Texas students left in schools that the state funded just enough to fail.Private school vouchers head to Abbott's desk to become lawMy column for Bloomberg this week focuses on the quiet but dangerous implications of President Donald Trump's plan to reassign IRS criminal investigators from pursuing tax crimes to enforcing immigration law. This isn't just bureaucratic tinkering—it's a direct hit to the fragile deterrence model at the heart of our voluntary tax system. That system relies on the perception that the IRS is always watching, even if the chance of an audit is low. When that perception erodes, so does compliance.I argue that this shift weakens a key psychological pillar of tax law: the belief that evading taxes carries real consequences. Without the looming presence of tax enforcement, some taxpayers begin to wonder—sometimes out loud—whether they still need to play by the rules. I've seen this firsthand in conversations with clients and students. The risk of noncompliance starts to look more like a gamble than a crime.Public, high-profile enforcement has always served a broader messaging purpose: make examples of a few to deter many. But moving agents away from tax cases undermines that strategy and signals that enforcement is now a political tool, not a consistent application of law. Once that belief spreads, taxpayers may stop viewing payment as a civic duty and start viewing it as optional—especially if they believe others are getting away with cheating.I close by warning that this perception shift, once embedded, is hard to undo. Tax compliance is held together by trust as much as enforcement. Undermining one weakens the whole system. This is a public episode.

Just after midnight on July 20, 2012 an armed man in a gas mask set off tear gas in a crowded theater at the premier of Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises in the Century 16 multiplex Cinema in Aurora, Colorado. Before the smoke cleared 12 were dead, and 70 were injured. Lone gunman James Holmes then walked out, leaned calmly against his white Hyundai, still in body armor and gas mask, and waited to be arrested. At 12:38 police dispatch received a call: gunshots fired in theater. Ninety seconds later police were on the scene. Pandemonium. Four minutes later 24 year-old James Holmes was in the back of a cop car. The arresting officer initially thought Holmes was on the SWAT team, and when he asked him if he was the one who had done this, he tells us that Holmes replied, “I am the Joker,” but Holmes denies ever saying that. The Superhero-Villain angles made the story huge news, and when Holmes arrived in court with fluorescent orange-dyed hair and a wide-eyed vacant expression, the world's attention was galvanized.  This was a tragedy with needless injuries, unnecessary loss of life, and untold psychological stress forced upon both the people there and upon a nation. This podcast episode was not created to suggest this event didn't happen, nor to capitalize on the tragedy, and my heartfelt compassion goes out to everyone who has been affected by this very real crime. I've put this episode off for a while now, but I finally decided that there's information here that needs to be brought to light. If this event did not happen in the way we have been told, or if important facts have been left unchecked, then the circumstances here deserve a deeper look. That's what we'll do today. This is not an episode of sensationalism, although many of the facts are dramatic. But there's something here that just feels wrong, out of place, or slightly off in some ways that are difficult to pinpoint. It's the tidy way that it was all packaged, the conflicting reports that were ignored, the high-level connections of some of those involved, and the almost cartoonish evidence presented after the fact. When logic clashes with the official narrative, I go to work. In this episode I'll do my best to give you the facts we know, the details that seem irrational, and the connections others have overlooked so you and I can view this tragic event with fresh eyes. So join me now, and together we will dive deep into the stories surrounding James Holmes, the Batman Shøøter. Help Crowdfund RF on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/renegadefiles Get cool RF Merch https://www.bonfire.com/store/renegade-files/Visit and Share the Website http://therenegadefiles.comDig us on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@renegadefiles  Follow RF on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/renegadefiles/  If you like the show, please leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you think we deserve it.

The cast of characters is extraordinary and includes an unassuming 40-year old mom, a famous New York artist, two Men-In-Black type agents, and a Secretary General to the United Nations. This story received a large amount of attention in New York City and was eventually the subject of a Netflix documentary called, “Manhattan Alien Abduction”. The story has also been covered on The Why Files Podcast and by Kit and Rory on their podcast: This Paranormal Life, and several more.  A lot of times I'll pass on certain subjects if others have covered them well already, but for some reason I kept coming back to this one.  When I started looking into this case I was fascinated by some of the details and events so I decided to dive deeper, and that's how I ended up making this episode … so come with me to New York City and together we will fly up the blue beam of light into the mothership and investigate The Brooklyn Bridge UFO Abduction. Help Crowdfund RF on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/renegadefiles Get cool RF Merch https://www.bonfire.com/store/renegade-files/Visit and Share the Website http://therenegadefiles.comDig us on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@renegadefiles  Follow RF on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/renegadefiles/  If you like the show, please leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you think we deserve it.

This episode, I interview Maggie Mills. She's a ghostwriter, writing coach, editor and more. And while we did cover some ground that I intended, at some point the interviewee became the interviewer. We discussed Copyrights and the industry and "work made for hire" status, but she got too much out of me. Me! Who even knows what I revealed? So you're getting two shows for one this week. Hopefully, you'll learn a bunch about her and not too much about me.Maggie MillsGhostwriter /author coach / editor /accountability partnerVisit and subscribe. Please and thank you … Let's connect … Maggie@MaggieMills.comwww.linkedin.com/in/maggiemillswriter https://www.youtube.com/@take-maggies-word-for-itMaggieMills.comTakeMaggiesWordforIt.com

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Andrei Mincov, founder and CEO of Trademark Factory, a company that specialises in trademark registration & protection. On this episode Mincov shares his insights & experiences on the importance of trademarks for entrepreneurs and businesses, and the common mistakes and misconceptions that people have about the trademarking process. He will also explores the role of IP in business growth & success, & the strategies &best practices for protecting & leveraging your ideas & brands. KEY TAKEAWAYS My dad was a famous composer in Russia. A radio station that stole a song he wrote & turned it into an ad for Samsung without his permission, at the time I was attending law school & he asked me for help. I didn't know anything about IP but in 1996 nobody in Russia had any idea about IP because Russia had just changed from Soviet law into free market law, so I gave it a shot & as part of that journey I became passionate about helping people who created something to protect it from others who want to steal it from them. Trademarking is mostly the same around the world, there are small differences here & there & you need to understand them to be successful in those countries. But, this isn't something I think entrepreneurs should care about, that's why providers exists who can navigate them through this. What you should know are the basics, it's not as complex as you might think: What is trademarking? What are you protecting? What do you need to show to the government to prove it's a brand & not a cute name or image? The biggest misconceptions I see with trademarks is that you don't own the word or the image you own the mental association between that work, phrase or image & specific products & services that you sell. Why trademark? If you plan to be in business for several/many years, the brand will become the most valuable asset of your business. It makes it easier t=for you to attract better talent, attract better leads at a lower cost to advertise at lesser cost. Even if you file your trademark a day before someone else does, you're good. The problem is you don't know when someone else will file for a trademark, so you should do it early or else someone else will do it and you won't be protected, even if you came up with the name first.  BEST MOMENTS ‘The trademarking process takes a long time & I've seen a lot of entrepreneurs being taken advantage of by unscrupulous firms that claim to be able to trademark their brand for $49.' ‘The success rate of your trademark application is directly related to your willingness to understand the basics.' ‘On a general level, what trademarks protect is the brand, whether it's the name, tagline, logo, or some combination.' ‘Trademarks is the only type of IP that you can own, in theory, forever. Copyrights, patents, industrial right expire, if you renew your trademark every 10 years you can own it forever.' ABOUT THE GUEST Andrei Mincov, the founder and CEO of Trademark Factory, is a renowned expert in intellectual property law. With a career that began with a fight to protect his father's music, Mincov has since written multiple books on the subject, including an international bestseller, & has helped thousands of entrepreneurs and companies protect their IP. His passion for ensuring that hardworking entrepreneurs are not taken advantage of led him to found Trademark Factory, the only firm in the world that offers trademark registration services with a guaranteed result for a guaranteed budget. When he's not helping secure trademarks, Mincov enjoys living in Dubai with his wife & 3 kids & playing his one-of-a-kind DrumDesk.
