Canadian Advanced Technology Alliance Concerned With C-32's Digital Lock Rules

By Michael Geist

ADVERTISEMENTS
The Canadian Advanced Technology Alliance, one of Canada's leading technology associations with small, medium, and large technology companies as members, has posted an issues brief that includes criticism of Bill C-32's approach to digital locks.  According to CATA:

Like many stakeholders, the members of the coalition are concerned that the new personal use rights (as well as other legal uses of works) are eliminated in the presence of a "digital lock." To provide greater consistency between the personal use provisions (which prohibit circumvention of both access control and copy control TPMs) and the general anti-circumvention provisions (which only prohibit circumvention of copy control TPMs), we propose that the personal use exceptions permit circumvention of copy control measures, but not access control measures.
