Geschillenbeslechting en collectief rechtenbeheer: Over tarieven, transparantie en tribunalen in het auteursrecht external link

Visser, D., Hins, A. & Hugenholtz, P.B.
pp: 80, 2008

Abstract

Het collectieve rechtenbeheer in Nederland wordt gekenmerkt door wettelijke monopolies of feitelijke machtsposities met betrekking tot het licentiëren van auteursrechtelijk beschermde werken. Door dit gebrek aan marktwerking ontstaan problemen bij de tarifering. In dit onderzoek staat de vraag centraal of deze problemen door de invoering van een bijzondere geschillenregeling en eventuele flankerende maatregelen verlicht kunnen worden. Na een analyse van in Duitsland en Canada bestaande oplossingen én van de constitutionele (on)mogelijkheden in Nederland, wordt een oplossing 'op maat' geformuleerd, die evenredig is met de geschatte omvang van het probleem en aansluit bij de bestaande Nederlandse verhoudingen en de gegroeide praktijk. Deze oplossing bestaat uit een drietal componenten: 1. een transparantieplicht (verplichte openbaarmaking van tarieven); 2. wettelijke normering van tarieven en 3. een geschillenregeling.

Abstract

Prejudiciële procedure over de vraag of de nationale rechter een internet provider kan bevelen een algemeen filtersysteem in te voeren om schending van auteursrechten te voorkomen. Volgens het Hof gaat een bevel zoals in casu was opgelegd te ver, mede gezien de grondrechten uit het Handvest Grondrechten van de EU.

Vive la Balance! Pleading for a French revolution of copyright, external link

INDICARE Monitor, 2006

Abstract

This article reports about the French implementation of the famed Article 6 (4) of the European Copyright Directive, the article that orders member states to guarantee that consumers can benefit from exceptions despite the application of technological protection measures. Considering the fact that France is the origin of a series of groundbreaking decisions in favour of a balance between DRM use and consumer interests, figuring prominently among them the private copyying exception, and all the public discussion those cases triggered, we have all reason to be curious about what the French legislator will come up with.

Unravelling the myth around open source licences : An analysis from a Dutch and European law perspective external link

T.M.C. Asser Press, 0201, Series: Information Technology & Law series, ISBN: 9067042145

Abstract

This study gives an overview of the current legal situation regarding the use of open source software licences and investigates how the most commonly used open source software licences measure up to Dutch and European law. By its in-depth analysis and clear conclusions, this book contributes to the understanding of this complex field that policy makers, regulators, and academics so crucially require. Taking the provisions of the GNU GPL, the BSD, and the Mozilla Public Licence as examples, it investigates the implications of open source licensing from a private law, copyright law and patent law perspective. It also takes a brief look at the issue of the enforcement of these licences. To facilitate the use and enforcement of open source software licences in Europe, and more particularly in the Netherlands, the authors conclude their study by making a number of recommendations for the adaptation of the licence terms with a view to enhancing their compliance with the legal requirements.

The Netherlands: Darfurnica, Miffy and the right to parody! external link

Jipitec, num: 3, pp: 236-248, 2012

Abstract

The legal community of the Netherlands let out a sigh of relief in May 2011 when the judgment of the District Court of The Hague in preliminary proceedings was handed down in the Darfurnica case. The same feeling of satisfaction prevailed, more recently, when the Court of Appeal of Amsterdam rendered decision in the Miffy case. Both decisions, rendered on appeal, overruled the judgments of first instance, which had given precedence to the protection of intellectual property rights above the user's freedom of expression in the form of parody. But freedom of expression, and parody in particular, are solidly anchored in the Dutch values and courts more often than not find in favour of the parodist. Apart from the fact that both decisions offer an interesting analysis of where the limit lies between intellectual property protection and artistic freedom, each decision deserves a few words of commentary in view of some noteworthy particularities.
