News/Media Alliance Applauds the Copyright Office for Modernizing Registration of Online News Content, Protecting Investments in Vital Public Services

The News/Media Alliance commends the U.S. Copyright Office for today adopting the rule on group registration of updates to news websites. The rule allows publishers to submit copies of their homepages as identifying material to evaluate for registration on a monthly basis. Previously, publishers lacked a feasible way to protect their online properties.

ARLINGTON, Va., July 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The News/Media Alliance commends the U.S. Copyright Office for today adopting the rule on group registration of updates to news websites. The rule, originally proposed in January, allows publishers to submit copies of their homepages as identifying material to evaluate for registration on a monthly basis. Previously, publishers lacked a feasible way to protect their online properties as registration would have required the submission of complete copies of publisher websites for each day.

“This is a significant development that allows publishers to effectively protect and fight against the systemic misappropriation of their content online. This option has been a long time coming and we applaud the Copyright Office for taking this important step forward.”

News/Media Alliance President and CEO Danielle Coffey said, “This is a significant development that allows publishers to effectively protect and fight against the systemic misappropriation of their content online. This option has been a long time coming and we applaud the Copyright Office for taking this important step forward.”

Timely registration of copyrights is vital for publishers as without it, rightsholders are not entitled to statutory damages and attorney’s fees. Due to the high cost of litigating copyright cases in federal courts, these damages are necessary to make the enforcement of copyrights viable for publishers. Before today, publishers lacked the ability to reasonably access the full benefits of the copyright system.

The new rule applies to news websites and will become effective immediately. The rule is based on the same application as the pre-existing group registration option for newspapers – which the Alliance played an important role in developing prior to its adoption in 2018 – including the registration fee.

Coffey continued, “Dominant technology companies and artificial intelligence developers, along with other websites and aggregators, systemically take and use publisher content, far too often without authorization or compensation. Efficient and meaningful copyright protection and enforcement is vital for preserving access to high-quality journalism for the communities our members serve. Without this vital service, we risk a future of low-quality information that harms the health of our democracy.”

While the rule represents an important development for many Alliance members, we will continue to work with the Copyright Office to build on it in order to expand reasonable registration options for other types of publisher content online.

TOKYO, Nov. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As Japan accelerates its national transition toward resilient urban infrastructure and automated logistics, Taiwan’s Unmanned Vehicle Alliance (UVA)—led by Global Shield Robotics (GSR)—has been advancing its comprehensive expansion into the Japanese market since April 2026. To mark this milestone, the GSR_UVA Alliance will host the “Taiwan Unmanned Vehicle Supply Chain Japan Industry Seminar” on November 10, 2026, from 13:30 to 17:00 at Meeting Room 2 on the 28th floor of Conrad Tokyo. Bringing together 17 elite Taiwanese hardware and software innovators, the alliance introduces a unified, non-China supply chain ecosystem spanning smart UAV command platforms, automated parking, and intelligent fleet logistics.

Driven by Japan’s stringent supply chain security standards and ongoing demographic shifts, municipal agencies and infrastructure operators are urgently adopting trustworthy automated solutions. The consortium bridges key technological gaps by integrating Taiwan’s world-class ICT, AI edge computing, and precision manufacturing with robust cyber-secure architectures. Among its core offerings, the alliance provides an integrated C2 platform featuring real-time AI computer vision and 3D spatial monitoring for disaster response, alongside 3drens’ InstaTMS platform to optimize last-mile dispatch routes with real-time IoT tracking.

“Our objective is not merely exporting hardware, but delivering a trusted, end-to-end operational framework,” said a spokesperson for Global Shield Robotics. “By integrating custom AIoT software with specialized hardware components, we offer Japanese partners a reliable, secure alternative aligned with Japan’s MIC technical standards and Level 4 BVLOS flight mandates.”

The alliance targets strategic partnerships with major Japanese System Integrators, government authorities, and top-tier logistics entities. Supported by Taiwan’s Small and Medium Enterprise and Startup Administration (SMESA) and Taiwan Innovative Software and Services Association (TISSA), the coalition plans to showcase its integrated solutions at an upcoming B2B2C technology summit in Tokyo this September, aiming to forge deeper cross-border cooperation and drive next-generation smart city transformations.
