Some doctors and dentists are requiring that you assign your copyrights to them.
Dropbox officially stated that information you uploaded could not be read by them, but actually, it can.
Slashdot reports that California thinks it can copyright its laws. (Sorry, I know this is old. But it is still a great candidate for this category.)
CarrierIQ is deserving of an article all by itself, but in the meantime I'll tide myself over with pointing out this: If keylogging is occurring, then CarrierIQ is violating copyright law, because the text typed by a user is automatically copyrighted upon creation. Further, any text that is "interesting" to CarrierIQ or its clients would, by virtue of being "interesting," have value; by having value it automatically self-strengthens its copyright.
