: Michael GeistMPAA: ACTA Must Include Internet Provisions
By Michael Geist
We firmly believe that for the ACTA to address the enforcement challenges our industry confronts today, it MUST include robust protections for intellectual property online. Practical secondary liability regimes for online infringement are essential to motivate stakeholders to cooperate in implementing the reasonable practices that promote legitimate consumer options and make the online marketplace less hospitable for infringers. ACTA parties should refine their secondary liability regimes to reflect current realities and adopt modern, flexible systems where they do not exist.
Talk of "refining secondary liability regimes" is not so subtle code for the establishment of a global three-strikes and you're out policy.
