Shear Brilliance

[Managing Rights Management] In 1995 the original InterTrust team - Shear, David Van Wie, KarlGinter, and Frank Spahn filed a patent application that was over 300pages of text and drawings when the first installment issued in '99. One of the largest computing-related patents with which I'm familiar,for example, this Ginter et al. patent [warning: large file]described (among many other things and without limitation) inherentlyP2P architectures for securely associating rights with digitalinformation and enforcing those rights at a distance in time and space, in other words, for rights management.

Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
