Journal: Law, Innovation and Technology DOI: https://doi.org/10.1080/17579961.2020.1727058 This article was originally published with an incorrect abstract. This has now been corrected and the article is re-published. The corrected abstract is listed below: ABSTRACT Relative to the dual criteria of effectiveness and legitimacy, this article evalu- ates webblocking injunctions in the context of intellectual property law and with a particular focus on the vanguard role played by the English Courts. With regard to the first criterion, it is argued that there is reason to think that webblocking injunctions are viewed by IP owners as well as by legislators and courts as a relatively effective instrument in the protection of IP assets. Moreover, the extension of webblocking orders to trade marks together with their adoption in a number of legal systems, is further evidence that these orders, if not a silver bullet, at least have some utility. With regard to the second criterion, it is argued that the legitimacy of these orders is under- written by both domestic and European legislation together with a jurispru- dence that insists on the balancing of rights and a proportionate use of the orders. © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group
