14/10/2008 Rapport Medina

Report on "the harmonization of certain aspects of copyright and related rights in the information society" advocating for Internet filtering, three-strikes approach (graduated response), etc.


02/09/2008 Telecoms Package Plenary Speeches

Mrs. President, the speaker, Mrs. Trautmann, told that questions on intelectual property should not be mixed in this debate. I agree her, since I believe that protection of intelectual property, as well as protection of intimacy and another legal concepts, are already defined in other legal frameworks.

However, it is convenient to remind at this moment that the protection of intelectual property is still important as to the

content maintaining refers. It has been said that the telecommunications are like big highways where you can freely drive; but in the highway, if somebody commits a crime, the police appears. You cannot steal a car, drive it on the highway and, when the police

appears, say that there exists the driving freedom on the highway.

I believe that is important, from the point of view of the Parliament, to reiterate the importance of the protection of

intelectual property, to reiterate the protection of private life, to even reiterate the right of people to their own intimacy, which in

this moment is being infringed by the big telecommunications.
