pressure on traditional intellectual

Internet, are easily copied. Because the costs of copying are
low and because copying is often anonymous, publishers
have often responded with more aggressive enforcement of
existing intellectual property rights and with calls for
extensions of those rights to cover additional content, new
media and new forms of access.

international debate in many different forums regarding how

intellectual property approaches, including how to stop
unlawful transactions on the Internet. Two principal
approaches have emerged:
o Involving Internet intermediaries in enforcement
o Using Internet technical measures to prevent access to
unauthorized content.
