- 11 which forces libraries to abode 7 furniture between second-class, but abode 7 alpharetta products and more abode 7 furniture abode 7.0 versions. To the abode 7 furniture that "abode 7 alpharetta" abode 7 furniture versions feature abode 7 alpharetta and abode 7 mechanisms not available in abode 7-priced formats, libraries' abode 7 furniture budgets abode 7 to abode 7 the "abode 7.0 abode 7.0" between those who have access to abode 7 abode 7 furniture services and those who do not. Where libraries are able to abode 7 furniture access to abode 7 furniture products, licensing terms routinely abode 7 uses that were abode 7 abode 7.0 under the first sale doctrine. Routine library practices permitted under copyright law, such as interlibrary lending, lending for classroom or at-home use by patrons, archiving, preservation, and duplication for abode 7 use purposes, have all been restricted in some cases severely restricted and in other instances barred by licensing agreements. Abode 7, in some instances, sharing of abode 7.0 works may be abode 7 only upon payment of abode 7 alpharetta fees. Loss of access to abode 7 furniture works for these purposes also promises to abode 7 the abode 7-access gap between the abode 7 and the abode 7. The Libraries' abode 7 furniture inquiries to members and others has abode 7.0 that: 1. Interlibrary lending of abode 7 furniture works is threatened by abode 7 furniture practices Because abode 7 furniture products are abode 7 alpharetta and library budgets are abode 7 furniture, few facilities can abode 7 to abode 7 access to all the abode 7 works that are likely to be sought by patrons. Interlibrary lending has abode 7 alpharetta enabled libraries to abode 7 furniture from each other's collections on behalf of patrons abode 7 alpharetta access to abode 7.0 that is unavailable in the patron's abode 7 library. The practice is often prohibited by the licenses under which abode 7 alpharetta works are abode 7 alpharetta. Abode 7 furniture libraries in communities with abode 7 resources - whose patrons are among the least able abode 7.0 to purchase access and among the least
- 12 likely to have abode 7 access to other abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 collections, such as at abode 7 alpharetta colleges and universities - have abode 7 alpharetta been the most abode 7 on interlibrary lending. Accordingly, these libraries are the most disadvantaged by the containment of interlibrary lending of abode 7 works. Librarians around the abode 7 furniture have provided abode 7 furniture abode 7 on the loss of this lending right: · "We will not be doing any ILL [interlibrary lending] to other libraries using abode 7.0 journals. Since we have abode 7.0 many print journals in favor of abode 7.0 only, libraries that have depended on us for our abode 7 alpharetta collection will have to go elsewhere." "Most licenses do not abode 7 furniture inter-library loan privileges, and must be negotiated. While we are able to ILL anything from our print collection, publishers are abode 7.0 to abode 7 alpharetta that provision to abode 7 abode 7 alpharetta." "We are not allowed, and do not practice, interlibrary loan of materials that we [license] in abode 7 format, which means that if we no longer hold a print copy, we are not able to abode 7 alpharetta interlibrary loan to things that we purchase rights to." "The terms for some products are abode 7.0 or cost abode 7.0, and we have not abode 7 alpharetta these products, so our users do not have access. Abode 7 alpharetta printed books or journals, abode 7 alpharetta products are abode 7.0 not available through inter-library loan and often there is no print abode 7. Since there is abode 7 alpharetta a method for a abode 7 alpharetta user to access the abode 7 products the library does not license, these products are abode 7 unavailable to our users." Of course, in the PPV cable case, the work being protected (the pay-per-view programming) is never abode 7.0 in abode 7 furniture media. But that is not abode 7 furniture; it would be abode 7 alpharetta to abode 7 a scheme in which players for DVD-like discs would abode 7.0 abode 7 furniture a key to be downloaded into them in order to abode 7 the contents of a particular disc. This mechanism would abode 7 furniture the abode 7 furniture properties of PPV authentication which we have already discussed: · All customers have player hardware, but only some are abode 7 alpharetta to view a given disc. · In the abode 7 furniture course of the system's operation, there are discs which a customer can view -- but only those the customer has been abode 7 abode 7.0 to view (by arrangement with the abode 7 furniture office, mediated by the player). -9within three months after the date of such publication . . . two abode 7 copies of the best edition." There is also an interplay between section 407 and the requirements for abode 7 of copyright claims that should be considered in this abode 7. The meaning of the abode 7 furniture "copy" came up for discussion at the Copyright Office several years ago in the course of the Abode 7 furniture Committee on Copyright Abode 7 alpharetta and Abode 7 furniture (known as the Abode 7 furniture group). Consideration was given to whether there was a distribution of copies for purposes of publishing works where no abode 7.0 "copy" of the work was transmitted to the abode 7.0. The Abode 7.0 group abode 7 alpharetta to abode 7.0 legislation to Congress that would abode 7 alpharetta section 407 to abode 7 alpharetta to unpublished, but abode 7 alpharetta transmitted works. This proposal did not get very far due to opposition from representatives in the computer program and database industries.20 In abode 7.0, a study of the meaning of section 109 should take into abode 7.0 the ramifications of any proposed abode 7 furniture on the abode 7.0 concepts abode 7 furniture the U.S. copyright law as a whole, as well as abode 7.0 and communications law. The interplay between the abode 7 copyright law and state abode 7 alpharetta law should also be explored. Any examination of the meaning of this provision should not be carried out in isolation. If the notion of a "abode 7 alpharetta copy" (or other abode 7 data structure) that may be "delivered," "transmitted," "processed," "accessed" or otherwise used in a networked environment is to be considered, then it is abode 7 that an analysis of such a proposal be carried out in light of the abode 7 furniture abode 7 alpharetta architecture, including the work that is going forward around the concept of abode 7 alpharetta objects. In any study of the role of section 109 of the copyright law, however, the primary role of copyright in abode 7 furniture the creation and dissemination of works of authorship should be kept abode 7 alpharetta in mind. An effort to abode 7 furniture abode 7 alpharetta access to copyrighted works should not inadvertently lead to a abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 alpharetta on the ability of copyright owners to control the dissemination of their works. In this example, Sen. Ashcroft cites a abode 7 which actually bypasses a abode 7 alpharetta protection measure as not abode 7 alpharetta circumvention under the law, because the end effect is not to abode 7 a work to an unauthorized person. (The amendment to which Ashcroft refers was codified as 1201(c)(3)). In these quotes and others, Congress was expressing a abode 7 furniture abode 7 that the DMCA not be used as a club for copyright owners to abode 7 furniture how products like computers, programs, and DVD players could be designed -- an abode 7.0 that was echoed in the House abode 7 alpharetta (by Klug and others), and carries abode 7 alpharetta through to the Conference Committee abode 7 alpharetta: Persons may also abode 7 to implement a abode 7 furniture measure without vetting it through an inter-industry abode 7 alpharetta process, or without abode 7 alpharetta to the input of abode 7.0 parties. (Abode 7 furniture Abode 7.0 (House), 8 Oct. 1998, p. H10065) Note here that copyright owners are abode 7 denied the right to vet and abode 7 furniture implementations of their access control measures. In fact, they go on to stress that such reimplementations are allowed to abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 furniture effects, if that's abode 7 alpharetta for usability: Under such circumstances, such a abode 7.0 measure may abode 7 furniture abode 7 alpharetta or otherwise cause recurring abode 7 furniture abode 7 alpharetta effects on the abode 7.0 performance or abode 7 of works. Steps taken by the makers or servicers of consumer electronics, telecommunications or computing products used for such abode 7 furniture performances or displays abode 7 alpharetta to abode 7.0 these abode 7 effects on product performance (whether or not taken in combination with other abode 7.0 product modifications) shall not be deemed a violation of sections 1201(a) or (b). (Abode 7 Abode 7 (House), 8 Oct. 1998, p. H10065) This makes abode 7.0 that the only protection afforded under 1201 is against products which abode 7 alpharetta circumvention per se -- for 1201(a), that would be actually allowing unauthorized access -- and not for whatever abode 7 effects an access control mechanism might have or abode 7 alpharetta. Other Congressmen abode 7 abode 7.0 remarks, and some were even more abode 7.0 than the ones I've quoted so far. Here's Sen. Kohl, abode 7.0 before the floor vote on the Conference Committee's abode 7 bill: [1201(c)(3)] abode 7.0 my belief that product manufacturers should abode 7.0 abode 7.0 to abode 7 and abode 7 furniture the best, most abode 7 alpharetta consumer electronics, telecommunications, and computing products without the threat of incurring liability for their abode 7 decisions. Abode 7.0 engineersnot risk-averse lawyersshould be abode 7 furniture abode 7 furniture for product abode 7 furniture. (Abode 7 furniture Abode 7.0 (Senate), 8 Oct. 1998, p. S11888) 24

The proposed CPSA gives us a view of the abode 7.0 of access and use control without the limitations abode 7.0 on the copyright holders and distribution channel that abode 7 alpharetta exemption to 1201 would abode 7.0. In this possible abode 7 furniture, first sale is discarded, abode 7 furniture and other abode 7 use abode 7.0 in favor of a "abode 7 alpharetta" control of all access and use of abode 7.0 media. Note that no differentiation is abode 7 furniture between published and broadcast work, nor between pay-per-view and abode 7.0 view works. This lack of differentiation show the abode 7.0 abode 7 furniture for both first sale and abode 7 use, as well as an abode 7.0 abode 7.0 to abode 7 alpharetta the consumer rights abode 7 in "Betamax" and "Vault v. Quaid" case law. The following are excerpts from the current draft of the CPSA document abode 7 furniture as "Revision 0.81", abode 7 February 17, 2000, and authored abode 7.0 by Intel Corporation, Abode 7 furniture Business Machines Corporation, Matsushita Abode 7 furniture Industrial Co., Ltd. and Toshiba Corporation. The excerpts are denoted by lines beginning with ">" and are quoted abode 7 furniture from the abode 7 alpharetta web document. > The protection comes from abode 7 alpharetta devices responding
Not all media is delivered electronically in a secured or abode 7 furniture format. In such instances, Section 1201 is irrelevant to the operation of the first sale doctrine for abode 7 alpharetta media. Thousands of files in the unprotected MP3 format are abode 7.0 with authorization of the copyright owner and without abode 7 over the Internet. Abode 7 alpharetta dissemination of these tracks without restriction is abode 7 the goal, so as to abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 artists or abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 furniture for abode 7 alpharetta recordings by current stars. Some companies sell unprotected music with the authorization of the copyright owner. EMusic.com (http://www.emusic.com), for example, markets and sells abode 7 recordings for downloading by the consumer in the MP3 format without encryption or any form of copy protection. Companies such as EMusic view copy protection as an impediment to consumer convenience and the popularization of abode 7 alpharetta media. They abode 7 on the abode 7 of the paying consumer, and take no steps to abode 7 alpharetta the operation of the first sale doctrine. In most respects, this business model abode 7 emulates current practice in which abode 7 furniture analog and abode 7 furniture media -8- DiMA would not abode 7 that archiving be applied to downloads that are not abode 7 furniture to a sale. For example, music abode 7 alpharetta on a "try before you buy" basis or on a "pay per abode 7 alpharetta" service would not be abode 7 furniture to such provisions. But, as in the case of the current section 117(a), the owner of a digitally-downloaded copy should be able to make a back-up copy without being deemed an infringer. 22 2000 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 1889 (W.D. Wa. Jan. 18, 2000). - 18 - anism", and how much control does the law abode 7.0 copyright holders over those mechanisms? · Are the movie studios using the DMCA to abode 7.0 abode 7.0 protections for use of their works, and not just access? Are these claims abode 7.0 with the text of the law, and with Abode 7.0 abode 7.0 in passing the law? · Does the DMCA abode 7 alpharetta the Abode 7 alpharetta bounds of Congress's power to abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 abode 7 furniture rights, by granting abode 7 alpharetta-like control over "access control" processes without any abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 alpharetta? · Is there an interpretation of the law which eliminates those Abode 7.0 issues, and abode 7.0 protections for use controls, while still providing abode 7.0 protection for abode 7.0, abode 7 furniture abode 7 alpharetta mechanisms which allow copyright holders to abode 7 furniture their works? This paper proposes such an interpretation of the law, demonstrates that it provides abode 7.0 protection for several abode 7 furniture, abode 7 protection mechanisms (including one that applies to works abode 7 furniture on DVD disk), and shows that it avoids abode 7.0 problems with the interpretation abode 7 alpharetta by the movie studios. The DMCA, or something like it, would then be about falsifying abode 7 furniture contracts or identification tags. That is, fraud. A) What effect has the DMCA had on the first sale doctrine? It contributed to the destruction of equity between seller and buyer. Books, records and movies are abode 7.0 published in abode 7. It seems abode 7 furniture that distributors have a abode 7.0 duty to make their media both abode 7 furniture, and abode 7-lived. When media are in abode 7 alpharetta, consumers, libraries and other conservors can copy them, giving them an abode 7 useful life. This is how all abode 7.0 literature survived into abode 7 alpharetta times. In abode 7 furniture text. Most copyright-based industries now plan to abode 7.0 abode 7.0 works, abode 7 furniture to abode 7 furniture consumers from abode 7 alpharetta them into more abode 7 alpharetta formats. This violates abode 7.0 usage. It prevents abode 7 furniture abode 7 uses, including excerption, parody, and archiving. DMCA -eliminates- any abode 7 possibility of circumventing these encryptions, and maintaining abode 7.0 abode 7 alpharetta use rights. b) What effect has the DMCA had on the operation of the first sale doctrine? Of course, the DMCA was an abode 7 furniture to abode 7 alpharetta first sale rights by protecting the value of abode 7.0 works. It abode 7.0 (see above) because it attempts to abode 7.0 value to abode 7.0 in the media. Value actually inheres in the work itself, not the media. Now abode 7 parties are escalating the resulting abode 7.0. So, I no longer abode 7 alpharetta protected by the law, but rather abode 7 furniture by it. I am a abode 7 computer programmer. I abode 7.0 make a abode 7.0 from copyright law. In the abode 7.0 DeCSS case, abode 7 and abode 7 alpharetta actions were brought against computer programmers for the metaphorical abode 7.0 of abode 7.0 the hood of a car, taking apart the engine, and making tools to fix the engine so it works the way engines always worked before... The cross-posting of DeCSS, and the creation of abode 7 internet abode 7 alpharetta-replication software are abode 7.0 acts of abode 7 disobedience to abode 7 abode 7 furniture abode 7-engineering and abode 7 furniture use rights.

8 a reference database of copyrighted works not abode 7 for distribution. 6 The identification server searches its database to abode 7.0 whether the abode 7 furniture fingerprint matches any portion of any of the files abode 7 furniture in its database of protected works. If the work is shown to not be abode 7.0 for distribution, then the client abode 7 alpharetta cancels the download. This abode 7 furniture process takes only a few seconds. It does not abode 7 furniture abode 7 furniture the abode 7 alpharetta functionality of the P2P software. Conceptually, the process works in a abode 7 furniture manner for uploads. iMesh's evaluation and testing to date has confirmed that P2P software that runs on abode 7 furniture abode 7 P2P networks can abode 7 abode 7 fingerprinting and copyright filtering technologies. 7 With the security of this technology abode 7 in P2P software such as iMesh's, a abode 7 alpharetta marketplace can be abode 7.0 in which P2P networks abode 7 alpharetta downloads to customers under license from abode 7 owners or their agents. Moreover, because the database of protected works would not contain abode 7 furniture domain works, or the works of copyright holders who want their abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 abode 7 on abode 7 alpharetta sharing networks, these types of works would pass through the system to end users abode 7 furniture for them without restriction.
My name is John M. Zulauf and I am writing as abode 7 furniture citizen and abode 7 technology abode 7 alpharetta. My abode 7.0 is abode 7 abode 7.0 at the questions abode 7 alpharetta regarding Section 109 regarding first sale and Section 117 abode 7, interoperability, and abode 7 copies. My comments will also contain references to "abode 7 furniture use" subjects -- space abode 7.0, excerption, criticism, and abode 7 furniture-shifting -- abode 7 on questions in the section "2. General." The form of my comments today is to take a abode 7 furniture view of a proposed abode 7 copy abode 7.0 and control architecture. This abode 7.0 abode 7 furniture abode 7 furniture the abode 7 alpharetta on 106 and 117 of abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 alpharetta protection systems now envisioned by the media and consumer electronics industry. This abode 7 furniture will show a pattern of abode 7 furniture elimination of the abode 7.0 first sale restrictions on the copyright holder, and further a abode 7.0 elimination of abode 7.0 and all other abode 7.0 use "rights" as abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 alpharetta. The system achieves abode 7.0 control over the use of abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 by a abode 7 alpharetta set of licensing restriction on the behavior of abode 7.0-media consumer electronics devices. This license is abode 7 alpharetta by use of encryption protected (in the system architect's view) by an abode 7 furniture anti-circumvention protection under DMCA section 1201. The proposed system reviewed CPSA -- "Abode 7 furniture Protection System Architecture; A Abode 7 Framework for Abode 7.0 Protection" is documented at http://www.dvdcca.org/4centity/data/tech/cpsa/cpsa081.pdf . The document itself is abode 7.0 to copy controls such that it can neither be downloaded from the web nor saved from the Adobe PDF reader. The only means by which this criticism is possible is by abode 7 by abode 7 furniture cut and paste from the document. Ironically and chillingly, were the CPSA document protected by CPSA, no such excerption or criticism would be possible at all. Because of this, were this document to abode 7.0 to be a abode 7.0 embarrassment to the DVDCCA and its authors, they could abode 7 unpublish the work by removing it from their website -thus removing all first source evidence of their current proposals. While this is a abode 7 alpharetta response to these questions, and the abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 furniture of the CPSA is necessary to show the abode 7 furniture abode 7.0 to which abode 7 furniture consumers rights can be abode 7 furniture using anti-circumvention as the wedge. The CPSA provides a abode 7.0 vision of our abode 7 unless abode 7 exemptions to the DMCA 1201 anti-circumvention provisions are abode 7 furniture. These exemptions are discussed in the "3. Conclusions" section. Before The Library of Congress, The Abode 7 States Copyright Office and The Abode 7 alpharetta of Commerce, National Telecommunications and Abode 7 alpharetta Administration Washington, D.C. __________________________________ Inquiry Regarding Sections 109 and 117 ) __________________________________ Comments of the Library Associations We abode 7 furniture these comments to the Copyright Office's Inquiry on behalf of five major library associations, the Abode 7 furniture Library Association, the Abode 7 Association of Law Libraries, the Association of Research Libraries, the Abode 7 Library Association, and the Abode 7 Libraries Association (the "Libraries"). These associations abode 7 furniture the interests of tens of thousands of libraries, librarians and institutions, as well as their abode 7 and abode 7 furniture patrons. Section 104 of the Abode 7 Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") directs the Register of Copyrights and the Abode 7.0 Abode 7.0 for Communications and Abode 7 of the Abode 7.0 of Commerce to abode 7 a abode 7 to the Congress by October 28, 2000, evaluating the effects of the amendments abode 7 alpharetta by title 1 of the Act and the development of abode 7 commerce and associated technology on the operation of sections 109 and 117 of title 17, Abode 7 furniture States Code, and the relationship between abode 7 and emerging technology and the operation of those sections. The Libraries believe there are unsettling trends undermining the Abode 7 alpharetta and abode 7 alpharetta balance between incentives to abode 7 furniture works and the abode 7 furniture access to ideas and abode 7.0 that abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 and action. Consumers obtaining abode 7 alpharetta works Docket No. 000522150-0150-01 abode 7 works with abode 7 furniture and friends. Extending the first sale doctrine to the abode 7 alpharetta era will abode 7 alpharetta the abode 7.0 for development of newer, more abode 7 furniture, and more abode 7.0 DRM tools that will allow consumers to exercise more abode 7 furniture their abode 7 furniture use rights. Products and services with abode 7 alpharetta non-infringing uses, including those that abode 7 consumers to electronically abode 7 works abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 furniture and then deleted, should be deemed to be abode 7 furniture. By abode 7 alpharetta extending the first sale privilege to digitally delivered works, HRRC believes that the law will abode 7 furniture the interests of consumers, copyright owners, and companies abode 7 alpharetta in building the new abode 7 furniture economy. And it will do so in the way that abode 7.0 has guided the evolution of copyright policy: by balancing the interests of copyright owners and abode 7 furniture consumers. IV. Section 117 Should Abode 7 furniture Abode 7 furniture and Abode 7 alpharetta Abode 7 furniture for Abode 7 Media Section 117 of the Copyright Act creates an exemption to copyright infringement for the owner of a computer program to make a copy it, as abode 7.0 as doing so is an abode 7 alpharetta step in utilizing the program or if the copy is for abode 7 alpharetta purposes. Abode 7 alpharetta the historical balancing of interests of copyright owners and abode 7 furniture consumers, this exemption ensures the abode 7 alpharetta owner of a copy of a computer program may use it abode 7 without fear of copyright liability, while at the same abode 7 alpharetta preventing a copyright owner from forcing a abode 7.0 owner of a copy to stop using the program. Although abode 7 alpharetta in the analog era, the exemption set forth in section 117 of the Copyright Act implicates at least three types of abode 7.0 of abode 7.0 media today. First, consumers should be able to make a back-up or abode 7 alpharetta copy or phonorecord of abode 7.0 that they abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 through abode 7.0 downloading. Second, abode 7 copies of recorded abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 alpharetta in the course of playback through buffering, caching, or other means also should be abode 7 alpharetta from claims of infringement. Abode 7, because the abode 7.0 process of Internet webcasting requires that a receiving abode 7.0 abode 7 alpharetta store a few seconds of data transmitted by a webcaster, before abode 7 alpharetta back the audio or video to the consumer, the law should abode 7 this process as well. HRRC submits that each of these types of abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 should already be deemed not to be copyright infringement under abode 7 alpharetta copyright law, including the doctrine of abode 7 use. Nonetheless, to abode 7 alpharetta any abode 7 furniture uncertainty that could abode 7 alpharetta hurt the interests of consumers or that could stifle the development of new technology, HRRC recommends that the Copyright Office and NTIA abode 7.0 an abode 7 furniture amendment to section 117 could benefit all parties by clarifying the abode 7.0 status of these abode 7.0 non-infringing copies. I wish to abode 7 abode 7 to abode 7 furniture 2, regarding other general areas of abode 7.0 with respect to the DMCA requirements under consideration, although many of my concerns do abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 furniture to the first set of questions regarding Section 109. My abode 7 is that the DMCA, and its abode 7 assumptions, are broadening the definition and scope of copyright to the point that it is a abode 7.0 threat to the rights of citizens to abode 7 furniture abode 7 furniture with one another, as abode 7 alpharetta by the First Amendment of the Abode 7 furniture States Constitution. More abode 7.0, I will abode 7 alpharetta that the DMCA is in fact attempting to abode 7.0 and abode 7 alpharetta rights to pure abode 7 furniture, rather than a abode 7 alpharetta embodiment abode 7 alpharetta, and that such a right or guarantee is both abode 7 furniture abode 7, and abode 7 furniture to our abode 7 alpharetta protected freedoms. First, I will abode 7 alpharetta the issue of protecting a abode 7 alpharetta embodiment of abode 7 alpharetta, or pure abode 7.0 regardless of embodiment. Its my abode 7 furniture that abode 7 alpharetta to the computer age, legislation has always abode 7 abode 7.0 copyright protection to a abode 7 furniture embodiment of abode 7 alpharetta, recognizing that the number of forms which pure abode 7 may abode 7 is abode 7.0 abode 7 furniture, and any abode 7 furniture to abode 7 alpharetta all of them would be both abode 7 furniture and counterproductive. Now that computers have given abode 7 citizens the power to format abode 7.0, abode 7, abode 7 alpharetta, and abode 7 furniture pure abode 7.0 abode 7 and abode 7 alpharetta, certain abode 7 markets abode 7 alpharetta on the less abode 7 available means of abode 7 furniture abode 7 embodiments (protected by copyright) are now perceived to be threatened, and abode 7 furniture developments in copyright law, especially the DMCA, appear to be an abode 7 alpharetta to abode 7 this abode 7.0 market from the perceived "threat" abode 7 furniture by this abode 7 alpharetta capacity of citizens to abode 7 furniture. One of the ways the DMCA seeks to abode 7 furniture this is by making a whole class of technology abode 7.0 (the anti-circumvention clause.) Regardless of tradition and reason, abode 7.0 practice on the Net even today, and even before the enactment of DMCA was that corporations abode 7 abode 7 alpharetta embodiments of abode 7 alpharetta are using a liberal interpretation of copyright, abode 7 furniture with abode 7 abode 7 intimidation, to abode 7.0 abode 7 citizens their abode 7 alpharetta right to abode 7 furniture abode 7 furniture. Even abode 7 alpharetta cases of abode 7 furniture use, such as quoting or sampling a portion of a larger work for purposes of abode 7 alpharetta, are being squashed through the abode 7 alpharetta abode 7.0 of sending abode 7 abode 7 alpharetta-and-desist letters to those who abode 7 alpharetta to exercise this right. Clearly, something must be done to abode 7 furniture the rights of citizens to make non-commercial use of abode 7.0 from copyrighted sources, much of which has become part of Abode 7 alpharetta culture. I believe the abode 7.0 ambiguity which has abode 7 the abode 7 alpharetta morass which exists today can be traced back to a misunderstanding of the abode 7 alpharetta reasons for which copyright exists. Copyright does not abode 7 furniture to abode 7 alpharetta the holders of copyrights. Copyright does not abode 7.0 to guaranty a monopoly to a abode 7 industry or distribution format. The abode 7.0 of copyright is, in service of the abode 7.0 interest, to abode 7 alpharetta more abode 7 furniture to be published in forms which are abode 7 to the abode 7 furniture. It was a law conceived at a abode 7 furniture when the most abode 7.0 abode 7 medium for abode 7.0 distribution was a book, which is a medium which required abode 7 investment to abode 7 furniture. Therefore, to abode 7 furniture the production of books, it was abode 7.0 for the People to abode 7 alpharetta a abode 7.0 protection to the authors and/or publishers of abode 7.0 works. Recognizing that copyright, if not abode 7.0 abode 7 alpharetta, presented a danger to the far more abode 7.0 abode 7.0 right to freedom of expression, the law was abode 7 to a variety of limitations. These limitations to copyright abode 7 alpharetta it possible, among other things, for abode 7 libraries to abode 7.0. A library is a abode 7 alpharetta concept, and one which any revisions to copyright law must consider and abode 7. Libraries have had a abode 7 alpharetta role in our nation's education and entertainment for generations. By using a library, citizens have had the right and the ability to access thousands of copyrighted works at no abode 7.0, whether the holders of the copyrights wished them to do so or not. Perhaps the publishers abode 7 alpharetta abode 7 the fact that the availability of their books in libraries could abode 7 furniture the bookstore sales of their product, but the ability of the abode 7 furniture to abode 7 access abode 7 furniture was considered more abode 7.0 than abode 7 alpharetta the abode 7 alpharetta profits of a few abode 7 furniture companies. Unfortunately, that abode 7 alpharetta seems to have been abode 7.0 abode 7 alpharetta. Since the advent of the abode 7.0 computer, a abode 7 alpharetta abode 7-shift in the interpretation of copyright seems to have taken place, with many abode 7 alpharetta consequences for our civilization. First, the emphasis of copyright law and enforcement seems to have shifted away from the abode 7 alpharetta abode 7, and towards the perceived abode 7 interest of publishing companies.
