Particularly disturbing is the growing support for &#8220;three-strikes&#8221;  copyright rules that would disconnect whole families from the Internet  if one member of the household was accused (without proof) of copyright  infringement. The other big US agenda item is cramming pro-Digital  Rights Management (DRM) rules down the world&#8217;s throats that go way  beyond the current obligations under the UN&#8217;s WIPO Copyright Treaty. In  the US version, breaking DRM is always illegal, even if you&#8217;re not  committing any copyright violation &#8212; so breaking the DRM on your iPad  to install software you bought from someone who hasn&#8217;t gone through the  Apple approval process is illegal, even though the transaction involves  no illicit copying.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.boingboing.net\/2010\/09\/06\/latest-leaked-draft.html\">Read more<\/a>&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Latest leaked draft of secret copyright treaty: US trying to cram DRM rules down the world\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s throats (via Boing Boing) Michael Geist writes in with the latest news on the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA), the secret, closed-door copyright treaty that will bring US-style copyright rules (and worse) to the whole world.<br \/>\nLearn more by reading our blog at: http:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/blog\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[121,120,122,119],"class_list":["post-1451","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-information","tag-acta","tag-boingboing","tag-copyright","tag-drm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1451"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1451\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10227,"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1451\/revisions\/10227"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1451"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.waubonsee.edu\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
