Grafting the Old and New World: Towards a Universal Trademark Register that ...Danny Friedmann
Territoriality is one of the important principles of trademark law; however, the principle of territoriality is problematic and leads to many conflicts in the era of globalized trade and e-commerce. The European Union (EU) and Switzerland have a doctrine of maximalist protection of Indications of Geographical Origin (IGOs) via public orchestrated registers that defy the territoriality principle. The EU and Switzerland face concomitant problems to promote rural development and authentic quality products based on their terroir. In contrast, the US and other New World countries are harnessing their existing trademark systems to protect IGOs and further innovation. US and other New World countries are also letting products with generic geographical names compete in their home and international markets.
Specificity, protecting a sign only for designated goods or services, is another important principle of trademark law that can be and has been criticized. Without specificity, non-competitors would not be allowed to erode or tarnish the distinctiveness of a sign, no matter whether it is a trademark or IGO.
The Geographical Indications (GI) provisions of the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) are the legal result of a political compromise between Old and New World countries. Where the two camps did not succeed multilaterally, they each have pursued their policy aspirations within their national jurisdiction and internationally via Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and specialized bilateral IGO agreements. In 2019, the People’s Republic of China (PRC), one of the most important growth markets for IGOs, signed a specific IGO agreement with the EU, and in 2020 an FTA with the US which includes preferential IGO-related provisions. These recent normative developments suggest that the PRC’s IGO obligations are being rearranged. Combining the best of both systems, could create vital hybrids that could lead the way to new IGO standards for a future multilateral IGO agreement.
Geographical Indications in the EU, China and Australia: WTO Case Bottling U...Danny Friedmann
The EU is ferociously protecting its Geographical Indications (GIs) in the name of authenticity and rural development. Not only in the countries of the EU, but internationally. Australia and most other New World countries protect geographical names via their trademark system, but also via a sui generis system. This Article is looking at the approaches of the protection of geographical names in the respective systems and on the strategies vintners use to exclude each other in the People’s Republic of China (China), where there is a “gold rush” to export as much wine as possible.
Section 1 provides an introduction to the concept of GIs; Section 2 gives the Old World approach: registration of Appellations of Origin and Section 3 the New World approach: Protection of wine GIs via Trademarks and sui generis systems; Section 4 covers international GI treaties; Section 5 deals with China’s GI system; Section 6 will discuss the bilateral agreements on GIs between the EU and China; Section 7 uses Prosecco as a case study, where Italy and the EU try to “transubstantiate” a grape into a GI; Section 8 provides the conclusion.

TPP’s Coup de Grâce: How the Trademark System Prevailed as Geographical Indic...Danny Friedmann
In the struggle for supremacy between two diametrically opposed systems to protect geographical indications (GIs), the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP) gives the decisive push in favour of the trademark system. This has profound implications for generic geographical names, not only for TPP members, but also for their trade partners. In 1925, The Hague Act of the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Properties (Paris Convention) introduced the obligation to protect appellations of origin (AOs), but it left the Paris Union members complete freedom in regard of the method to achieve this objective.
Already in 1891, the Madrid Agreement for the Repression of False or Deceptive Indications of Source of Goods (Madrid Agreement) was signed. The treaty, which has now 36 contracting members, does not have any definition of indication of source of goods, but obliges member states to take certain measures against all goods bearing a false or deceptive indication of a country or place of origin. Article 4 Madrid Agreement makes clear that regional appellations concerning the source of products of the vine, such as “Chardonnay”, fall within the public domain. Then, in 1958, the Lisbon Agreement for the Protection of AOs and their International Registration
(Lisbon Agreement), a Special Union under the Paris Convention, ushered in a sui generis regime of international registration. After a probation time of one year, it erects an incontestable shield for AOs against becoming generic. The protection against usurpation of AOs and GIs, which goes
far beyond consumer protection against confusion, dilution or deception, was further extended in 2015 with the Geneva Act of the Lisbon Agreement (Geneva Act). This treaty also cleared the way for intergovernmental organizations such as the EU and the Organisation Africaine de la Propriété intellectuelle to become members.
Although the Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) of 1994 is agnostic about whether a sui generis or trade mark system is protecting geographical names, it has elements that can undermine the protection of generic geographical names in the non-wine and spirits products categories. However, with the signing of the TPP system in 2015, a deathblow is given to the sui generis system of protecting GIs.
This Chapter is composed of the following Sections: Section 2 Emergence of the sui generis system; Section 3 “Peaceful” co-existence between the sui generis and trademark systems;
Section 4 The last spasm of the sui generis system and victory for the trademark system;
Section 5 Conclusions.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
