Abstract
U.S. copyright law as most laws are based off of British law. This paper examines the origin of copyright law in Britain and traces its development throughout 19th America up until the 21st century. While tracing the development of copyright I also examine the implications occurring on the freedom of speech as technological advances create more changes in copyright law.
