  • Sascha D. Meinrath, et al., Digital Feudalism: Enclosures and Erasures from Digital Rights Management to the Digital Divide, 19 COMMLAW CONSPECTUS 423 (2011). Discusses current spectrum allocation and use and recommends “Opportunistic Spectrum Access” (“OSA”), which “would allow for secondary use of spectrum, and if permitted, could considerably increase unlicensed space available for end-users and innovators.” Ideas include unlicensed GSM bands, white spaces and guard bands in TV spectrum and secondary licensing that would preserve federal priority on underused spectrum.
