Christian Engström MEP, Rick Falkvinge: The Case for Copyright Reform (2012)
Filed under book | Tags: · acta, copyright, drm, eu, filesharing, free speech, information society, piracy, pirate party, politics, sampling
Legalized file sharing, shorter protection times for the commercial copyright monopoly, free sampling and a ban on DRM.
These are the main points of the proposal for copyright reform that the Pirate Party is advocating and which the Greens/EFA group in the European Parliament adopted as its group position in September 2011.
This is a constructive alternative to the controversial ACTA agreement and to the criminalization of the entire generation of youths. This booklet explains why such a reform is both necessary and sustainable and will benefit both citizens and artists.
