Albis commission implodes

Source: PC Inpact

An unprecedented crisis has blocked the Albis commission charged with putting in place the much decried charges on private copying.
Enough representatives to block the operation have decided not to sit and refused to return unless certain conditions are met:
-- End of the inclusion of injury-related piracy for the calculation of royalties;
-- Conducting studies on the uses and prejudices;
-- Return to a democratic balance (currently only the claimants have any possibility of an award).
Since it should make decisions, the commission finds itself in an awkward situation which will further weigh on its already seriously jeopardised legitimacy .
Good news in the meantime, the tax on iPhone and similar products which was to have passed today is adjourned sine die.
