He is doing much to discuss Apple’s new patent capable of capturing videos and photos that are created during the concerts, including their share from the iPhone and iPad.


 

It is a new tool that should in theory protect privacy and copyrights. Resume an artist during a concert and share it, in fact, it may violate the copyright, over his private interest not to disclose outside the stadium his image on stage and his music.

the technology, it turns out, is based on a patent of 2011 but of which we were informed only in recent days by the specialized site 9to5Mac, and would be based on infrared, useful not only to capture video and photos during each potentially event that could jeopardize copyright and privacy, but used differently, could provide a great augmented reality tool, providing real-time additional information about a certain event, such as. the lineup of the concert that you are following, more images authorized with permission to share and more.

It is unknown whether the next iPhone 7 will have implemented this technology series but clearly it is already much discussed about how much copyright protection should prevail over the personal freedom to be able to film or take what you want.

the reaction of the artists. the artists might well see such a technology. Adele, during a recent concert at the Arena di Verona has publicly reprimanded by a fan stage that the filming: “I am here in real life, you can enjoy all live and not through a video camera.” Gianna Nannini and Kate Bush, have asked fans to give up their phones during the show.

In fact, in many Western standards, you could not photograph anyone without your permission. In contrast to service all the photos shared on social without any permission of the people photographed unintentionally.

In the same way most of the international standards do not prohibit a person from being able to take a selfie during a concert, without infringing essentially any copyright and without regaining any artist. The technology could again shoot and prevent to freely take a picture in the public crowd.

Saverio Occhipinti, privacy expert lawyer of the Court of Rome, interviewed by the Messenger said: “The law on the right copyright prohibits taking pictures and videos to concerts but it is clear that it is an old law, which does not consider the new technological means such as smartphones and social networks. The right has big problems in this regard, which have worsened with the arrival of platforms such as Periscope, which allow you to stream live video on their social profiles. Today, however, would be impossible in practice to prevent the spectators to a concert to capture images, either because they can not seize a cell, either because it depends on what is covered in the frame: if artists may refuse to take back their performance, can not prevent people to take a selfie “. That’s why the idea of ​​Apple “would be in effect a limitation of personal freedom would inhibit a cellular function in itself absolutely lawful.”
