There's been a few long posts on the Copyright Amendment Bill currently before Parliament. Thought it was time for a new index, if you are trying to navigate or looking for something specific. So here are the new posts:
- Click here for my analysis of/problems with the criminal enforcement provisions in the Bill, in particular, the issue of strict liability.
- Click here for my analysis of the limitation on the exception for research and study
- Click here for why the Bill doesn't allow the use of iPods, and here for my updated thoughts, highlighting that an exception that fits iPods might not fit the Microsoft Zune player
- Scroll to the next post for my updated thoughts on the new TPM provisions (OzDMCA)
- Click here for my general thoughts on the Exceptions Exposure Draft, including the exception for 'certain purposes' and the parody exception (both are unchanged in the Bill)
- Click here for some thoughts on the incorporation of the three step test into Australian law
- Click here for some earlier thoughts on the criminal enforcement provisions
- Click here for links to my various earlier posts on the anti-circumvention provisions, which, to some extent, have been superseded by the significant changes to the language in this area.
