Safe Harbour

With the deadline for implementing the 2019 European Copyright Directive looming, the copyright safe harbour is likely to be newsworthy again in the next couple of months.

To help you get your head around what exactly the safe harbour is all about – and why it has proven controversial – we have a webinar and a white paper for you!

The next CMU Insights weekly webinar puts the spotlight on the music industry’s campaign to reform the safe harbour. It explains how the principle works, and why the music community argued that user-upload platforms exploiting safe harbour had created a ‘value gap’ in the digital music market.

You can book into this and other CMU webinars here.

Meanwhile, the first edition in a series of ‘Building Trust’ white papers being published by CMU Insights and content and platform security firm Friend MTS also explains the ins and outs of the safe harbour debate.

You can access the white paper for free here.

You can also read two recent blog posts from CMU’s Chris Cooke related to the white paper, one explaining why the safe harbour has proven to be controversial, and the other looking at the ongoing debate regarding article seventeen of the aforementioned EU directive.
