Universal City was founded by Carl Laemmle as a 230-acre ranch dedicated to movie-making.

 Universal Studios History
Universal's rich entertainment legacy can be traced back to 1906, when 39 year-old Bavarian immigrant Carl Laemmle (pronounced LEM-lee) opened his first nickelodeon theater in Chicago.
However, the Universal tour was temporarily halted in the late 1920s, when "talkies" became the norm and producers demanded a set free of visitor's noise.
The Universal Studios Tour was revived in 1964, and MCA/Universal also became a pioneer in location-based entertainment during the 1970s and 1980s.

Last year, in one of our Court’s first forays into First Amendment law in the digital age, we took an “evolutionary” approach to the task of tailoring familiar constitutional rules to novel technological circumstances, favoring “narrow” holdings that would permit the law to mature on a “case-by-case” basis.
Having concluded that computer code conveying information is “speech” <273 F.3d 450> within the meaning of the First Amendment, we next consider, to a limited extent, the scope of the protection that code enjoys.
