After long and heated debates, National Assembly is about to validate the famous project
DADVSI: Draft law on copyright and related rights in society Information
and in particular Article 7 which states:
The technical measures intended to pre [...] ; expensive or limit unauthorized use [...] of a work, other than software, performance, phonogram, video recording of a or program, are protected [...].
[...]
The technical measures must not have FFECT to prevent the effective implementation of intéropérabilit & # 233;.
1 / Take the case of the music sold by Apple through its iTunes Music Store: Purchased songs are encoded in this way for only used with the iTunes software, or played on iPods.
Given the importance of this activity is for Apple, can we imagine that the builder will remove its integrated (Music Store - iTunes - iPod) protection measures that would open the door to competitors environments? There is reason to fear that "thanks" to Apple DADVSI is reduced to close his business on the French market . Consumers who thought they found their account may well be the ones to suffer DADVSI ..
2 / In a society where the economy is increasingly based on trade in agriculture, nor industry, but on that information, is it realistic to impose a Gallic village in our almost free of content.
And besides, why have excluded the software of the law? It would have been fun to also impose the interoperability of software: buy a version of Microsoft Office for Windows, and I'm able to install on all computers in my home, including my Mac and my Linux box!
