📣The time for action is now. At last week’s #SCCR46, Education International reiterated that copyright laws must empower educators and researchers—not serve corporate profits.

Education is a right, not a privilege. Let’s #GoPublic and break down legal barriers to learning.

I would be shocked if the @wipo.int Broadcast Treaty is recommended for a diplomatic conference by #sccr46 The text appears to be a long way off from the consensus described by the chair in SCCR 45. It is not carefully limited to signal piracy and has many provisions on post-fixation activities.

Africa Group @wipo.int #sccr46 "we note that discussions remain complex and Member States continue to hold divergent views on the scope and nature of the protection. ... extending exclusive rights to broadcasters particularly beyond the protection of the signal would have unintended consequences."

As part of the A2K Coalition, we are deeply concerned that the draft broadcast treaty currently under discussion at @WIPO is still too broad, encroaching the Public Domain and preventing public interest uses. #SCCR46

US @wipo.int #sccr46 "the US remains concerned the draft continues to exceed the GA mandate for a signal based approach to protect broadcasters in the traditional sense and accordingly in our view significant work remains to be done on this text."

📡Don’t cut the signal!

📺The proposed Broadcast Treaty at #SCCR46 fails to protect the public interest.

🔊We need mandatory exceptions for education, research, libraries, archives, quotation, accessibility and more.
