Story Surveillance #52

Story Surveillance is a weekly exploration of IP opportunities around the world – including everything from book announcements and magazine articles to harder-to-find nuggets in social media, library vaults, lost manuscripts and other rich sources. The survey is carried out by the staff of Project Brazen for its own purposes, but we also share it with a small group of companies and collaborators.

Story Surveillance will be taking a break over the Easter bank holiday next weekend. We'll be back on April 25. Please enjoy this bumper edition in the meantime!

In this week’s edition: A corporate espionage scandal in big tech, a feature film about a kind-hearted smuggler, the wild story of a Brazilian judge's identity fraud and a series of exciting new novels.
