The fierce protest sparked in many European countries in February
2012 by the signing of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement
(ACTA) is a perfect illustration of the balancing act that
legislators have to perform when enshrining the protection of
intellectual property rights in law. The interests of both users
and rightholders require a compromise that is felt to be "fair."
Although the question of shaping the details of copyrights is
the focus of intense debate, there is a relatively broad consensus
that piracy, that is to say the systematic violation of these
rights, must be combated. This IRIS plus looks at the issue of
combating internet piracy, which has become an explosive subject,
especially owing to the constant improvements in the efficiency of
electronic data exchange and the consequent rise in copyright
violations.
