My Fair Copyright for Canada Principles http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/2572/125/
With the continued interest in Canadian copyright reform - the Fair Copyright for Canada Facebook group has grown to over 38,000 members and the local chapters across the country are gaining significant momentum - the most frequently asked question I receive is "what do you think fair copyright reform looks like?" In other words, we know that tens of thousands of Canadians oppose a Canadian DMCA, but what kind of reform would or should they support?
1) Take the Copyright Pledge. 2) Anti-circumvention provisions should be directly linked to copyright infringement. 3) No ban on devices that can be used to circumvent a TPM. 4) Expand the fair dealing provision by establishing "flexible fair dealing." 5) Establish a legal safe harbour for Internet intermediaries supported by a "notice and notice" takedown system. 6) Modernize the backup copy provision. 7) Rationalize the statutory damages provision. 8) Include actual distribution in the making available right.
Can we have a campaign similar to this in India?
