INTRODUCTION 1. We submit this Report to Congress pursuant to the Child Safe Viewing Act of 2007 (“Child Safe Viewing Act” or “Act”).1 The Act directs the Commission to provide, by August 29, 2009, an assessment of the current state of the marketplace with respect to: the existence and availability of advanced blocking technologies;2 methods of encouraging the development, deployment and use of such technologies that do not affect the packaging or pricing of programming; and the existence, availability and use of parental empowerment tools and initiatives already in the market.3 2. The Act addresses the drastic changes in the media landscape that affect children. Specifically, in the last two decades, electronic media has assumed an increasingly integral role in the lives of children.4 As a result of a number of technological innovations and the growing convergence of media, children today can access the same content sources from a variety of media platforms, many of which are portable.5 This increasingly complex media environment carries both risks and opportunities 1 See Child Safe Viewing Act of 2007, Pub. L. No. 110-452, 122 Stat. 5025 (December 2, 2008). The Act requires the Commission to issue a report to Congress no later than 270 days after the date of enactment of the Act (i.e., by August 29, 2009). See id. at Section 2(c). Because this day falls on a Saturday, we are submitting this Report to Congress on the next business day, Monday, August 31, 2009. 2 Congress defined “advanced blocking technologies” as “technologies that can improve or enhance the ability of a parent to protect his or her child from any indecent or objectionable video or audio programming, as determined by such parent, that is transmitted through the use of wire, wireless, or radio communications.” Id. at Section 2(d). 3 See id. at Section 2(a). 4 For example, a recent Nielsen survey reports that children from two to 11 years of age are spending 63 percent more time online than they did five years ago. See The Nielsen Company, Growing Up, and Growing Fast: Kids 2- 11 Spending More Time Online, July 6, 2009, http://blog.nielsen.com/nielsenwire/online_mobile/growing-up-and- growing-fast-kids-2-11-spending-more-time-online/. 5 For example, according to a recent survey, 77 percent of teens in the U.S. have their own mobile phone.

  • Parental Controls 1
    Parental Controls 1 Begin as you mean to go. You can introduce parental software controls to a younger child with more ease than to a teenager. Getting your child used to the idea that the tablet goes off, the video goes off, the TV goes off at certain times is extremely attractive. And with parental control software, you can do just that. Parental controls are usually included in most devices, such as your computer, tablet and smartphone. You need to dive into those settings and dig around to see what features are available to you. If you are based in Europe, the European Commission maintains a website called SipBench.eu which provides benchmarking analysis of parental control software. The findings are available in several European languages and identify the prices, technical requirements, operating system and age of the children to be protected. It is a handy background resource to get you started with parental controls. If you know of other parental control software tools that should be added to this list, please write to me at [email protected] so I can investigate and incorporate them into this resource sheet. Thank you for being a part of our Digital Parenting Community. www.digitalparentingcoach.com 2 Before signing up for parental control software • Read this article from Common Sense Media to help you make sense of the different types of parental control systems. • Confirm that your parental control software will allow you, at the very least, to set screen limits, filter content, block ads, and monitor your child’s online activities.

  • 2003 Special 301 Report People’S Republic of China
    INTERNATIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ALLIANCE 2003 SPECIAL 301 REPORT PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Special 301 recommendation: With piracy losses at a staggering $1.85 billion in 2002, piracy rates continuing at over 90% across all copyright industries, and with no significant movement to enforce the criminal law against piracy as required by TRIPS, IIPA recommends that China remain subject to Section 306 Monitoring. Overview of key problems in China: More than one year following China’s WTO accession, piracy rates in China remain among the highest in the world. While enforcement actions throughout China continue, the apparent unwillingness of the Chinese government at the highest levels to take the actions necessary to reduce these rates, continues to be the cause of the greatest concern, particularly the failure to date to provide a truly deterrent enforcement system by imposing criminal penalties against pirates and by significantly increasing administrative fines for acts of piracy. Piracy by both unlicensed and licensed optical disc factories continues to flood the domestic market with pirate music, movies, videogames, books, and business software, making it very difficult for local Chinese creators and U.S. right holders to build viable businesses in China. Exports have diminished to a trickle, but pirate Chinese optical disc (OD) product has been found in Hong Kong, Russia and Vietnam. Piracy at the wholesale and retail level, and over the Internet, remains rampant, even though provincial and central government authorities, as well as Customs with respect to pirate imports, have undertaken numerous raids and massive seizures. The lack of deterrence in the system, the uncoordinated enforcement activities throughout China, the lack of transparency, and continued local protectionism are the primary causes of China’s inability to reduce piracy rates.
