EU: Musikindustrie will Proxy-Server illegalisieren-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- zum Geld/drucken fürchtet, weitaus erfolgreicheres Lobbying betreibt, als die junge Branche der ISPs. Von einer breiten Front an Ahnungs/armut getragen, votierte das EU-Parlament in erster Lesung für einen Zusatz im geplanten Copyright/gesetz, der Proxy-Server & Caching illegalisieren würde. post/scrypt: Wer sagen kann, warum die dümmsten IT- Gesetzvor/schläge seit 95 auffällig oft von Sozialdemokraten kommen, tue dieses bitte kund. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Sean Hargrave .... Internet Service Providers (ISPs) claim that taken in its most literal sense the directive would render most Net activity illegal. They claim that not only would it be against the law to download a web page without first asking its author, it would also be illegal for an ISP to "cache" content. The record industry, which was one of the leading campaigners for the amendment, vigorously rejects the ISPs' interpretation of the new clause. .... Originally the directive made provision for caching as long as it did not harm the rights of copyright holders and was "integral and essential" for the functioning of the Net. An amendment successfully put forward last Wednesday by Roberto Barzanti, an Italian socialist MEP, tightened the proposed law. It added a need for copyright holders to give their permission for all digital copies of their work. ... Janet Henderson, rights and public policy manager at BT Internet and a council member of the Internet Service Providers Association (ISPA), is astonished by the vote. "It's absolutely unbelievable. They have passed an amendment that would effectively outlaw the Net," she says. .... Graham Watson, liberal MEP for Somerset & North Devon, opposed the Barzanti amendment. He believes the wording of the final directive will be changed to clarify the issue when it receives its second reading later this year. .... "If the ISPA takes a lesson from this it should be that if you don't lobby well and get a technical message over in plain language, then people will not understand you. "We had to sit through about 250 amendments and I think a lot of MEPs found the whole process too complicated." .... full text http://www.sunday-times.co.uk/news/pages/sti/99/02/14/stiinnnws01005.html?1334425 relayed by shadowvrai@trust-me.com via dc-stuff@dis.org -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 1999-02-15 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
