The Federal Trade Commission is soliciting comments on Digital Rights Management technologies. The solicitation is in advance of a FTC Town Hall to address Digital Rights Management Technologies which is scheduled to take place Wednesday, March 25, 2009, in Seattle.
Digital
rights management (DRM) refers to technologies typically used by
hardware manufacturers, publishers, and copyright holders to attempt to
control how consumers access and use media and entertainment content.
Among other issues, the workshop will address the need to improve
disclosures to consumers about DRM limitations. Interested parties may
submit written comments or original research on this topic.
The meeting notice is here.
