From Safe Harbor to Choppy Waters: YouTube, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and a Much Needed Change of Course ABSTRACT YouTube.com, named Time magazine's "Invention of the Year" for 2006 and widely recognized as the most-visited video site on the Internet, has changed the face of online entertainment. With the site's acquisition by Google in October 2006, the possibilities for YouTube's growth became truly endless. However, there is a darker side to the story of the Internet sensation, one that is grounded in its potential liability for copyright infringement. The issue is that many of the most-viewed and most-popular videos on the site are copyrighted.

  • WIKI on ACCESSIBILITY Completion Report March 2010
    WIKI ON ACCESSIBILITY Completion report March 2010 By Nirmita Narasimhan Programme Manager Centre for Internet and Society Project Title: Wiki on “Accessibility, Disability and the Internet in India” Page | 1 REPORT Accessibility wiki: accessibility.cis-india.org The wiki project was envisaged and funded by the National Internet Exchange of India (www.nixi.in) and has been executed by the Centre for Internet and Society (www.cis-india.org), Bangalore. Project Start date: May 2009 End date: February 2010. Background India has a large percentage of disabled persons in its population— estimated to be over seven per cent as per the Census of 2001. Even this figure is believed to be a gross under representation of the total number of disabled persons residing in this large and diverse country. Taken in figures, this amounts to roughly 70-100 million persons with disabilities in the territory of India. Out of this number, a mere two per cent residing in urban areas have access to information and assistive technologies which enable them to function in society and enhance their performance. There are several reasons for this, one of them being that there is a deplorable lack of awareness which exists on the kinds of disabilities and about ways in which one can provide information and services to disabled persons. Parents, teachers, government authorities and society at large are all equally unaware about the options which exist in technology today to enable persons with disabilities to carry on independent and productive lives. Barring a few exceptions, India is still trapped in an era where a white cane and a Braille slate symbolises the future for blind people, while the world has progressed to newer forms of enabling technology such as screen readers, daisy players, the Kindle and so on.
