RIAA, MPAA Back UN Broadcasting Treaty
By: Jayesh Mansukhani   |   May 06, 2006
A rather audacious, and frankly, way too disturbing treaty is on the verge of being ratified. Being pushed by The United Nations, Wipo Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights is seriously pushing through a treaty that will regulate the Internet transmission of audio and video entertainment.

The treaty also demands that countries signed to the agreement would have to enforce the implementation of DRM. For more details check out this report.
