– TONO is disappointed with the proposed legislation. There is no doubt that the law strengthens the interests of buyers and users and weakens the interests of authors. Section 71 in particular involves a dramatic weakening of copyright, says TONO CEO Cato Strøm.
TONO will present its view on the Copyright Act in a separate text that we will post here on tono.no this evening after the hearing. Bendik Hofseth will give TONO's presentation to the Family and Culture Committee at 6:35 PM, and you can watch it live by following this link:
