Larry Lessig, The World’s Most Pessimistic Person^TM, waxes almost optimistic in his blog discussing the Eldred case he argued in front of the Supremes a few days ago.

Lessig is more optimistic about the outcome of the Eldred case than other reports I’d read because he focuses more on what the Justices did not ask during the hour-long argument, an indication of what they had accepted.

Lessig’s account presents the issues in a light that was to me — a non-lawyer — radically new and fascinating. Obviously this is must reading for anyone who cares about the future of copyright.
