<br>what is a good page to use as a model?<br><br>the page was originally divided into pro creators rights and pro<br>consumers rights.<br>this I think caused the edit wars because some groups identify as<br>groups which want to develop policies which support authors and
<br>consumers but perhaps not by providing control to the multinational<br>publishing interests.<br>the multinational media publishers are promoting DMCA and similar<br>systems which position themselves as the primary beneficiaries at the
<br>expense of both creators and consumers.<br><br>digital rights is very much an international issue, particularly now<br>with wipo pushing through broadcast treaty drafts without consent from<br>many nations, the current page sits in the domestic list.
<br><br>digital ACCESS rights are very important for people who want a<br>read/write culture.<br>the current page is scoped to only consider DRM or basically to frame<br>thw whole debate around a read only culture.<br><br>
