Copyright is but one piece in a national framework for ensuring the security, trustworthiness, and reliability of embedded software, and other copyright-protected technology that affects our daily lives. Issues such as these extend beyond the reach of 1201 and may require a broader solution, as noted by the NTIA. The Librarian fully supports the Register in her examination of these issues and urges Congress to work with the Copyright Office and other federal agencies to consider these issues beyond the contours of this 1201 rulemaking.
We also remain concerned that the process can be inefficient and problematic for petitioners seeking exemptions that have been previously granted. INTIA would welcome the opportunity to discuss possible further enhancements to the rulemaking process once this proceeding is complete.
Limitations of the Rulemaking Process Upon reflecting on the evolution of the rulemaking and the role of technology in society since the first triennial rulemaking in 2000, we conclude that the rulemaking process itself may no longer be adequately tailored to balance the interests of rights holders and people seeking to make non-infringing uses of copyrighted works who are adversely affected by the prohibition against circumvention in Section 1201.
