Bridget's feedback:

"You demonstrate your knowledge of the topic clearly, making good use of detail in guiding the reader through the well-organized discussion. These and other higher-order concerns of structure are in good shape, so you can next turn to some detail-oriented lower-order concern work to ensure a polished final product. This will include proofreading to catch mechanics errors and typos (such as "gone" instead of "done"), and making sure all capitalization is proper according to your style guide. And, italicizing court cases will, like correct capitalization, help the reader navigate the discussion visually, allowing them to focus on the ideas. Ditto for revisions that streamline or focus a sentence further, adding clarity and movement. We can look at the first two sentences of the conclusion for an example: note the overlapping phrasing "fundamental notion of..."; repeating this phrase (using "This", as you do) can help to emphasize the point, but consider the third sentence as well, which swaps out "notion" for "concept." Consider edits to the first two sentences such as, "The basis of copyright laws -- the fundamental notion of protection of intellectual property -- serves a broader purpose today..."; note the use of em dashes to emphasize without repeating the phrase."
