Country Choices Sample Clauses

Country Choices. The United States The three North American countries have implemented the treaties in different ways. In 1998, the United States passed the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), a “maximalist” interpretation of the treaties. DMCA Section 1201, subject to certain limitations, protects a TPM that restricts access and use in the service of a copyright owner’s rights. What makes the DMCA a maximalist interpretation of the WIPO Inter- net treaties is that it forbids people to “manufacture, import, offer to the public, pro- vide, or otherwise traffic in any technology, product, service, device, component, or part thereof,” that would allow individuals to circumvent TPMs designed to control access or limit copying of a work, if the following criteria are met: • The device is primarily designed for this purpose, • It has only limited commercially significance other than to circumvent TPMs, or • It is marketed as such a circumvention device (DMCA 1201[a][2] and 1201 [a][3][B]). Despite the language in section 1201 (b)(2)(B), this blanket ban would also have the effect of reducing access to circumvention devices for non-infringing pur- poses having nothing to do with copyright or for fair-use purposes. Furthermore, these criteria are “rather vague and ambiguous,” and “could create significant uncertainty for manufacturers and distributors of consumer electronics, telecommunications, com- puting equipment, and commercial software” (Kerr, Maurushat, and Tacit, 2002- 7 That said, proponents of U.S.-style TPM protection argue that strong protection is needed for the law to “adequately” and “effectively” protect copyright owners’ rights. 2003: 66). Since then, the U.S. government and its industries have aggressively sought the implementation of DMCA-type rules by other countries, including Canada and Mexico. Canada
