The Induce Act该诱导法

This proposed legislation would make it illegal for any company to develop products which are capable of digital copyright infrigement if a significant market demand is generated by individuals with the intent to use the product primary for such infringement.这项拟议的立法将使得非法的，任何公司开发产品，其中有能力的数字版权infrigement如果一个显着的市场需求所产生的个人与意图使用该产品主要为这些侵权。 Imagine a world where photocopiers and VCRs are illegal because a minority of the population uses them primarily to violate copyright.想象的世界里，复印机和录像机是非法的，因为少数的人口使用它们，主要是违反版权法。 We may be headed for the digital equivalent of that (VCRs and Photocopiers are usually analog and apparently make “imperfect copies” as opposed to the perfect copies created via digital methods).我们可能会为首的为数字相当于（录像机和复印机通常类比，显然使“完美的复制品”作为反对完美的副本创建通过数字方法） 。 We all need to be concerned about the potential for the Orwellian world that would be created where all digital manipulation tools including computers and iPods would be locked down by DRM (digital rights management) schemes.我们都需要关心的潜力，为奥威尔的世界将创造所有的数字操纵的工具，包括电脑和iPod将被锁定下跌DRM （数字版权管理）计划。

Brave Politics 勇敢的政治
Only humans could have the bravado to只有人类能有虚张声势，以 try to break the laws of physics尝试打破物理定律 . 。 Here is an excellent in-depth explanation of这里是一个很好的在深入解释 why DRM doesn’t work为什么数字版权管理行不通 by an up-and-coming Canadian author由一起来和未来加拿大作者 Cory Doctorow多克托罗的Cory . 。 See看见 this Canadian government article这加拿大政府的文章 on why DRM and Privacy are mutually exclusive which leads us to the inescapable conclusion that the Induce Act is fundamentally incompatible with privacy as we know it.关于为什么的DRM和隐私是互相排斥的，导致我们不可回避的结论，即诱导法是根本不相容的隐私与我们所知道的。 Adam Shostack亚当shostack wrote in this写在这 advice to the Canadian goverment向加拿大政府 : “I believe that extreme caution is needed in crafting deterrence to circumvention. ： “我相信极端谨慎，需要在工艺威慑，以规避。 It is important to start from the understanding that circumvention is not a crime; it is the violation of the copyright information which is a crime.”这是很重要的开始，从了解，即规避是不是犯罪，这是侵犯版权的资料，是一种犯罪“ 。

Why This is Relevant to Canadians like me? 为什么这是有关加拿大人喜欢我？
While it is unlikely that Canada will follow blindly in the legal footsteps of the USA (see these而这是不大可能，加拿大将盲从，在法律的脚步，美国的（见这些 recent rulings最近的裁决 ), there is some precedent in the rest of the world adopting aspects of American intellectual property law. ） ，也有一些先例，在世界其余地区采用方面的美国知识产权法。 Ironically it is the technology rather than the law that may end up regulating our behaviour, given that much of the technology we use is designed for the American market Canada will suffer the effects of any draconian DRM legislation both as consumers and suppliers of technology.具有讽刺意味的是技术，而非法律，最终可能会规范我们的行为，由于大部分的技术，我们使用的是专为美国市场，加拿大将受到影响的任何苛刻的数字版权管理的立法既作为消费者和供应商的技术。
