The document discusses technical protection measures (TPMs) for digital works and their legal status. It notes that TPMs aim to control access and use of works but are controversial due to exceptions in copyright law. The document also discusses alternatives to TPMs, such as Creative Commons licenses, which provide flexible rules for works online by encouraging metadata use and collaboration between rights holders and open movements. It concludes by arguing for a reasonable and flexible approach to copyright in the digital age.
