Approach

Thursday March 26, 2009
Days after New Zealand dropped its support for the "three strikes and
you're out" approach (also known as "graduated response") that would see
ISPs terminate subscribers on the basis of three unproven allegations of
copyright infringement, the European Parliament has similarly rejected
the proposed approach. Le Quadrature du Net reports that France had
tried to generate support with the EP for a pan-European approach
(France now one of the lone holdouts for the system). Today the EP
rejected the French pressure, adopting a new report on security and
fundamental freedoms on the Internet that expressly rejects
disproportionate measures for IP enforcement and warns IP holders
against excessive access restrictions.
The key paragraph states that the Parliament recommends that the
European Council:
proceed to the adoption of the directive on criminal measures aimed at
the enforcement of intellectual property rights, following an
assessment, in the light of contemporary innovation research, of the
extent to which it is necessary and proportionate, and while
simultaneously prohibiting, in pursuit of that purpose, the systematic
monitoring and surveillance of all users’ activities on the Internet,
and ensuring that the penalties are proportionate to the infringements
committed; within this context, also respect the freedom of expression
and association of individual users and combat the incentives for
cyber-violations of intellectual property rights, including certain
excessive access restrictions placed by intellectual property holders
themselves;
While this is a mouthful, it is noteworthy that the Parliament
emphasizes proportionality, the rejection of Internet monitoring, and
the use of excessive access restrictions placed by IP rights holders.
Update: Network World reports that attempts to place the three strikes
approach in the European Telecoms package has similarly failed.
