New leaked TPP text puts fair use at risk
« on: August 05, 2012, 10:59:07 PM »
Here's an article I found over on the EFF website and thought it was very interesting.

Quote
EFF believes that it is vitally important that fair use and exceptions and limitations to copyright be protected in international trade agreements.
 
But the United States Trade Representative (USTR) is putting Fair Use at risk with restrictive language in the Trans-Pacific Trade Agreement (TPP). The US and Australia are both proposing very restrictive text, and Peru is willing to accommodate the bad language. KEI reports on the leak of the negotiating TPP text on copyright limitations and exceptions.
