[amp_mcq option1=”Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P)” option2=”Center for Democracy and Technology” option3=”Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)” option4=”E-Government Act of 2002″ correct=”option3″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is: C. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a United States copyright law that implements two 1996 treaties of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). It criminalizes production and dissemination of technology, devices, or services intended to circumvent measures that control access to copyrighted works. It also criminalizes the act of circumventing an access control, whether or not there is actual infringement of copyright itself. In addition, the DMCA heightens the penalties for copyright infringement on the Internet.<\/p>\n

The DMCA was passed by the 105th United States Congress on October 12, 1998, and signed into law by President Bill Clinton on October 28, 1998. It is codified at 17 U.S.C. \u00c2\u00a7 512 et seq.<\/p>\n

The DMCA has been controversial since its passage. Critics argue that it is overly broad and stifles innovation. Supporters argue that it is necessary to protect copyrighted works in the digital age.<\/p>\n

The DMCA has been amended several times since its passage. The most significant amendment was the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), which was introduced in the United States Congress in 2011. SOPA would have required Internet service providers to block access to websites that were accused of copyright infringement. However, SOPA was met with widespread opposition from Internet users and businesses, and it was eventually withdrawn from consideration.<\/p>\n

The DMCA is a complex law with far-reaching implications. It is important to understand the DMCA if you are involved in any activity that could be considered copyright infringement.<\/p>\n
