Internet Protocol – Intellectual Property Policy
& Brexit
I have written another briefing paper on the Telecoms package. Called The Telecoms Package and ‘3 strikes’ – voluntary cooperation to restrict downloads , the paper argues that the EU is recommending 'voluntary' agreements between ISPs and right-holders for copyright enforcement. The nature of these agreements can be interpreted from the ongoing written communications put forward by rights-holders, indicating 3-strikes measures and filtering.
You can read it here. I have amended my paper of 21 July to include the change to Annex 1, Point 19 of the Authorisation Directive- click here to download the pdf.
