The issues with copyright are manifesting right now and problematic business models are fast becoming entrenched and normalised. It is worth exploring whether these trends suggest a few larger publishers will obtain some licensing deals while a longer tail of smaller outlets lose out.
Government's reticence to take meaningful action amounts to a de facto endorsement of tech firms' practices. That reflects poorly on this Government's commitment to British businesses, fair play and the equal application of the law.
On copyright, the Government has set up and subsequently disbanded a failed series of roundtables led by the Intellectual Property Office. The commitment to ministerial engagement is helpful but the next steps have been left unclear. While well-intentioned, this is simply not enough.
