R4R 004 - The DMCA (part 1)
Host: Colette Vogele
Guest: Jason Schultz, Electronic Frontier Foundation
Jason is a staff attorney for the EFF specializing in intellectual property and reverse engineering. He currently leads EFF’s Patent Busting Project and also teaches graduate classes on Cyberlaw at UC Berkeley’s Boalt Hall School of Law and School of Information.
Topic for Episode 004: In this episode, Jason discusses the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (the “DMCA?) and how podcasters and video bloggers are affected by this law enacted nearly 10 years ago. We start with some background on how the DMCA came about in 1998, then turn to discussing the two key provisions of the act — anti-circumvention (17 U.S.C. §1201) and notice/takedown/safe-harbor rules (17 U.S.C. §512). This episode mostly focuses on the anti-circumvention issues faced by video bloggers and podcaters, while next week’s episode will break down the notice and takedown process of section 512.
