Cari Tutti,
Come avrete forse già letto, abbiamo annunciato oggi alcuni cambiamenti alle
nostre procedure di rimozione dei contenuti in violazione con il diritto
d’autore.
Riteniamo infatti che il sistema di “notice and take down” (segnalazione e
rimozione) introdotto negli Stati Uniti con il Digital Millenium Copyright
Act e in Europa con la Direttiva sul Commercio elettronico (D.Lgs 70/2003)
sia il modo migliore per combattere il fenomeno della pirateria:
in
conformità con queste leggi, Google risponde velocemente alle richieste di
rimozione e lavora costantemente allo sviluppo di nuove procedure e
strumenti con i quali affrontare questo grave problema.
I cambiamenti che annunciamo oggi sono 4, e saranno implementati nel corso
dei prossimi mesi:
1. Daremo seguito alle richieste di rimozione per motivi di copyright entro
24 ore
2. Impediremo che i termini strettamente associati con attività di pirateria
elettronica appaiano su
Autocomplete<http://www.google.com/support/websearch/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=106230>
.
3. Miglioreremo le procedure di revisione antipirateria di AdSense
4. Faremo sperimentazioni su come rendere le preview di contenuti
autorizzati più direttamente accessibili sui risultati di ricerca.
Troverete ulteriori dettagli su questi cambiamenti sul post pubblicato sul
nostro blog ufficiale

*Making Copyright Work Better Online* Posted by Kent Walker, General Counsel
There are more than 1 trillion unique
URLs<http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/we-knew-web-was-big.html>on
the Web and more
than 35 hours of video
uploaded<http://youtube-global.blogspot.com/2010/11/great-scott-over-35-hours-of-video.html>to
YouTube every minute. It’s some pretty fantastic stuff - content that
makes usthink <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_philosophy>,
laugh<http://www.youtube.com/user/montypython?blend=1&ob=4>,
and learn new things <http://www.propublica.org/>. Services we couldn’t have
imagined ten years ago - iTunes, NetFlix, YouTube, and many others - help us
access this content and let traditional and emerging creators profit from
and share their work with the world.
But along with this new wave of creators come some bad apples who use the
Internet to infringe copyright. As the Web has grown, we have seen a growing
number of issues relating to infringing content. We respond expeditiously to
requests to remove such content from our services, and have been improving
our procedures over time. But as the Web grows, and the number of requests
grows with it, we are working to develop new ways to better address the
underlying problem.
That’s why today we’re announcing four changes that we’ll be implementing
over the next several months:
- We’ll act on reliable copyright takedown requests within 24 hours. We
will build tools to improve the submission process to make it easier for
rightsholders to submit DMCA <http://www.google.com/dmca.html> takedown
requests for Google products (starting with Blogger and Web Search). And for
copyright owners who use the tools responsibly, we’ll reduce our average
response time to 24 hours or less. At the same time, we’ll improve our
“counter-notice”<http://www.chillingeffects.org/question.cgi?QuestionID=132>tools
for those who believe their content was wrongly removed and enable
public searching of takedown requests.
- We will prevent terms that are closely associated with piracy from
appearing in
Autocomplete<http://www.google.com/support/websearch/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=106230>
. While it’s hard to know for sure when search terms are being used to
find infringing content, we’ll do our best to prevent Autocomplete from
displaying the terms most frequently used for that purpose.
- We will improve our AdSense anti-piracy review. We have always
prohibited<https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=48182>the
use of our AdSense program on web pages that provide infringing
materials. Building on our existing DMCA takedown procedures, we will be
working with rightsholders to identify, and, when appropriate, expel
violators from the AdSense program.
- We will experiment to make authorised preview content more readily
accessible in search results. Not surprisingly, we’re big fans of making
authorised content more
accessible<http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/making-search-more-musical.html>on
the Internet. Most users want to access legitimate content and are
interested in sites that make that content available to them (even if only
on a preview basis). We’ll be looking at ways to make this content easier to
index and find.
These changes build on our continuing efforts, such as Content
ID<http://www.youtube.com/t/contentid>,
to give rightsholders choice and control over the use of their content, and
we look forward to further refining and improving our processes in ways that
help both rightsholders and users.
Sono a vostra disposizione per ogni informazione aggiuntiva.
