These are the main points of the proposal for copyright reform that the Pirate Party is advocating, and which the Greens/EFA group in the European Parliament adopted as its group position in September 2011.
This is a constructive alternative to the controversial ACTA agreement, and to the criminalization of the entire young generation.
This booklet explains why such a reform is both necessary and sustainable, and will benefit both citizens and artists.
