    A very interesting post. I haven’t dealt much with South Africa IP law, it just hasn’t come up much in my own incidents, but I will be following this series closely. So far, it seems to closely enough follow U.S. law.

    However, in the long run, U.S. law will likely dominate just because most hosts are U.S. based. However, as hosts in the E.U. and elsewhere begin to gain traction, so will other versions of the law.

    It will be interesting to see how that shakes out.

    Thank you for this very interesting post!

    Hi Jonathan

    Thanks for dropping by and commenting on this post. Let me know what you think about the remaining posts in the series.

    You are correct in that there are parallels between US law and our law and this probably has a lot to do with international norms established by various conventions as well as the fact that the large copyright owners are multinationals that seek to protect their interests worldwide. Very conducive to uniformity.
