  6. Re-asking because this case is really fascinating to me: Sergey Aleynikov was convicted in federal court of stealing computer code from Goldman Sachs, but had his conviction reversed on appeal. He was then charged and tried again for exactly the same crime, except this time by the state of New York. That doesn't seem fair. Can prosecutors who fail to secure a conviction in one court just move to another and try again?

  17. As a citizen of the Internet, I have to ask about your opinion on the validity/enforceability of so-called "Copyleft" licenses, e.g. the GPL for software or CC-BY-SA for "cultural works". I vaguely recall one case related to enforcement, but I'd be interested to hear your off-the-cuff opinion on their merit.
