30 Days of DRM with Michael Geist September 18, 2006

www.michaelgeist.ca/daysofdrm

Michael Geist (Canada Research Chair of Internet and E-commerce Law at the University of Ottawa) has spent the last month posting “some of the exceptions and limitations that should be included in the event that a Canadian DMCA is introduced.” On each of the last 30 days he posted about one of the many pitfalls that DRM and DMCA-like laws cause for society including issues like anti-circumvention, time-shifting, educational institutions and libraries access to media, and backup archival copying. If you want a good over view of the problems with DRM read the the 30 Days of DRM.
