      abstract = {A New Framework for Intermediary Liability presents a  step-by-step framework for determining when internet  intermediaries ought to have a duty to act to prevent  copyright infringement on their platforms and services.   This timely book argues that intermediary liability for  copyright infringement should be focused on an  intermediary’s actual responsibility for primary  infringement and not simply its capacity to assist  copyright owners in challenging infringement. Drawing on  long-standing principles in the law of negligence, Kylie  Pappalardo argues for a brand-new way to understand  intermediary copyright liability and offers a means to  distinguish innocent and responsible intermediaries at an  early stage. Pappalardo reasons that a duty to act should  only arise where the intermediary has causally contributed  to the risk of infringement or where they have real and  actual control over the actions of primary infringers.   With astute consideration of the links between tort law and  copyright, this book will be a compelling read for  copyright scholars and researchers interested in  intellectual property and technology law. Judges, lawyers  and policymakers looking for guidance on how to define  intermediary liability for copyright infringement will also  find helpful direction in this book.},
