Kevin Mack, the new president of Via Licensing Alliance, joins Eli for the Clause 8 season finale.Kevin talks about Via's plans to build its next patent pools around "de facto" standards — technology the market adopted on its own, with no standards body behind it — which would push collaborative licensing into territory it has never touched. Mack also takes a hard look at the royalty-free models spreading through tech and AI, from AV1 to the new Shared AI License Foundation (SAIL), argues that "free" rarely stays free, and explains why he's optimistic about where the patent system is heading.Kevin and Eli also discuss:*Via's model and the "tipping point" that turns a pool from a few licensors into thousands of licensees*"De facto" standards: pooling patents for technology no standards body ever blessed*Leadership turnover at Via, the HEVC pool's move to Access Advance, and a new strategy-and-growth group*The push into semiconductors, including a new DRAM memory program*AV1, SAIL, and why Mack thinks royalty-free rarely stays free*Whether AI patents are as "foundational" as advertised — and why "AI is not new"*Efficient infringement, patents as property rights, and why companies ultimately take a license*The mood out of Via's Rome summit and a US patent system tilting back toward ownersNotable names, companies & standardsPeople: Kevin Mack (president, Via Licensing Alliance); Heath Hoglund (former Via president); John Amster (Jamster Capital; RPX co-founder)Organizations: Via Licensing Alliance (Via LA), MPEG LA, Dolby, Access Advance, Alliance for Open Media, Shared AI License Foundation (SAIL), WIPO (PatentScope), DOJ, USPTOSAIL founders / board (public): Anthropic, Genentech, IBM, Meta, Microsoft; board observers eBay and TD Bank Group; members include Block and FigmaStandards & technologies: AAC, AVC (H.264), HEVC (H.265), AV1, MPEG-2, Qi wireless charging, DRAM memory, SEP / FRANDDisclaimer This is a public episode.

Nošením duhové stužky si 17. května každoročně připomínáme Mezinárodní den proti homofobii, transfobii a bifobii (IDAHOBIT). Odkazuje na den z roku 1990, kdy Světová zdravotnická organizace vyškrtla homosexualitu z mezinárodního seznamu duševních nemocí. U této příležitosti jsme do speciálu fakultního podcastu De Facto pozvali doktorandky Nelu Andresovou z Institutu sociologických studií a Karolínu Hájkovou z Insitutu komunikačních studií a žurnalistiky.Obě se queer tematice ve svých výzkumech z různých úhlů pohledu věnují.

While part of the Iranian axis, they maintain strategic autonomy and pursue extreme territorial claims against Saudi Arabia, including Mecca.,, The Houthis are the de facto rulers of the majority of Yemen's population, controlling the central bank, port of Hodeidah, and government ministries,. Edmund Fitton-Brown explains that while they are part of the Iranian axis, they possess an autonomous Yemeni agenda and historic aspirations of "greatness". Negotiations remain difficult because the Houthis maintain extreme territorial claims on Saudi Arabia's holy cities, leading Fitton-Brown to suggest that only defeating the Islamic Republic can truly neutralize the Houthi threat.

3. Copley identifies the U.S. Constitution as a "de facto crown" providing stability, though it has become dangerously "frozen". He observes that the United States is approaching the 250-year average lifespan of empires, causing internal divisions over the Constitution's validity. Furthermore, he argues that a noble state relies on a "belief in beliefs," where leadership is imbued with mysticism. This continuity allows a monarch to serve as an ideal representative. Conversely, modern republics increasingly favor short-term, transactional democracy over durable values, leading to a breakdown in the rules of the nation-state. (3)1901 OLD HOUSE

Na última semana da presidência de Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, e antes da tomada de posse de António José Seguro como novo presidente da República, o Alta Definição recorda a emissão de 2019 em que o “Professor Marcelo” esteve à conversa com Daniel Oliveira. Percorrendo o seu percurso pessoal e político, e refletindo sobre o estilo de presidência que procurou imprimir desde a tomada de posse, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa defende que todos os Presidentes da República tiveram, à sua maneira, uma dimensão de proximidade e afetividade com o país, mas explica que decidiu manter o seu modo de ser — espontâneo e próximo — mesmo depois de assumir o cargo, recusando alterar a personalidade por causa da função. Ao longo da conversa, o presidente da República recorda a infância marcada por uma família politicamente exposta, fala da influência do pai e da formação académica em Direito, que o levou à carreira universitária. O “Professor Marcelo” evoca também a longa presença no comentário político e na vida pública, descrevendo-a como uma escola de contacto permanente com a realidade do país. Marcelo aborda o exercício da Presidência como um equilíbrio entre proximidade humana e responsabilidade institucional, reflete sobre o peso das decisões, a solidão que por vezes acompanha o cargo e a necessidade de interpretar os sinais da sociedade portuguesa. Entre memórias, episódios e reflexões, traça um retrato de um percurso marcado pela política, pela comunicação e por uma relação direta com os cidadãos. Recorde aqui a conversa originalmente emitida em outubro de 2019.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Prince William is reportedly beginning to operate with the authority of a future monarch, quietly assembling a small inner circle and managing strategy largely within his own household rather than through King Charles's court.

A new episode of the Center for Immigration Studies podcast examines the U visa program, originally created by Congress in 2000 under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), and explains how a narrowly tailored law-enforcement tool has evolved into a large-scale immigration benefit program, riddled with fraud and abuse.The U visa was designed to help law enforcement agencies detect, investigate, and prosecute crimes by offering legal status to unlawfully present victims of serious crimes who might otherwise be reluctant to have contact with authorities, in exchange for their cooperation. Congress capped the program at 10,000 visas annually, excluding family members.Key findings discussed in the episode include:The program has been overwhelmed, with roughly 250,000 pending applications from principal applicants and 150,000 more from family members – about 400,000 total cases.The surge is not driven by increased victimization, but by policy changes under the Biden administration that created incentives to apply regardless of merit.Under the Biden administration, applicants received work permits and protection from deportation upon filing an application, even before meaningful vetting or adjudication.USCIS officers were stripped of authority to place fraudulent applicants into deportation proceedings, eliminating consequences for false or frivolous filings.Evidence of abuse includes staged crimes, forged law-enforcement certifications, and an underground industry marketing the U visa as a means to a work permit.An internal USCIS study found that one-fifth of applicants were already in removal proceedings when they applied.Some sanctuary states, including California and Illinois, have leveraged the U visa as an amnesty tool, pressuring local law-enforcement agencies to certify applications.Recommendations include:Administrative actions to prioritize legitimate cases and reopen questionable approvals.Congressional reforms to restrict benefits before approval and tighten statutory eligibility.State and local standards for certification, centralized review, and increased oversight.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration StudiesGuestJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration StudiesRelatedThe U Visa ProgramTrump Sends His ‘Ace Reliever' Tom Homan to MinneapolisImmigration Newsmaker: A Conversation with ICE Deputy Director Tom HomanIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

CONSTITUTIONS, BELIEF, AND THE EMPIRE Colleague Gregory Copley. Copley describes the US Constitution as the "de facto crown" holding the American empire together, though it faces challenges from populist movements. He argues that a "faith-based electorate" or a "belief in beliefs" is essential for social unity, noting that when people stop believing in God, they will believe in anything. Monarchy utilizes mysticism and continuity to maintain this unity, a quality difficult for republics to replicate. NUMBER 15 1689 CHARLES II AND LADY JANE ENROUTE TO BRISTOL
