• first manual text mining - mid-1980s

‘In this paper, I have attempted to suggest a new emphasis: the use of large
online text collections to discover new facts and trends about the world
itself’.
• MIT Technology Review: 10 Breakthrough technologies 2001
4. I. Text and data mining (TDM)
Hargreaves Review (2011)
…the law can block valuable new
technologies, like text and data mining,
simply because those technologies were not
imagined when the law was formed.

imagined when the law was formed.
…there should be a change in rules to
enable scientific and other researchers to use
modern text and data mining techniques,
which copyright prohibits.
5. II. TDM Copyright limitations
New copyright exemption in the UK
1) Where a person has lawful access to a copy of a copyright work, copyright
is not infringed where that person makes a copy of the work for the purposes of
carrying out an electronic analysis of anything recorded in the work provided
that:
(a) it is done for the sole purpose of non-commercial research; and

(a) it is done for the sole purpose of non-commercial research; and
(b) the copy is accompanied by sufficient acknowledgement (unless this
would be impossible for reasons of practicality or otherwise).
(2) Any dealing with a copy made pursuant to section (1) for a purpose other
than the purpose referred to in subsection (1) is an infringement of copyright
and where such a copy is permanently transferred to another the copy shall be
treated as an infringing copy.
(3) To the extent that the term of a contract purports to restrict or prevent the
doing of any act which would otherwise be permitted by this section, that term is
unenforceable

20 copyright limitations… but there are few exceptions:
7. II. Classification of copyright limitations
• Statutory exemptions, e.g. citation
(authorization-free, remuneration-free)
• Statutory licenses, e.g. private copy
(authorization-free, with remuneration)
• Compulsory licenses, e.g. in anti-trust cases
www.eudat.eu

• Compulsory licenses, e.g. in anti-trust cases
(forced authorization, with remuneration)
• Mandatory collective administration, e.g. cable retransmission
(forced authorization, with remuneration)
after L. Guibault (2002), Copyright Limitations and Contracts
8. II. Rationale behind copyright limitations
• To protect constitutional rights
(freedom of speech), e.g. citation
• To regulate industry practice and
competition, e.g. press reviews
• To disseminate knowledge, e.g.

11. III. Technical Protection Measures (TPMs)
It is illegal to circumvent TPMs!
Member States shall provide adequate legal protection
against the circumvention of any effective technological
measures. (art. 6 Copyright Directive)

• How does it relate to copyright limitations?
Copyright limitations are a shield, and not a sword!
In 2008 the French Court of cassation held that the private
copy exception did not entitle the users to circumvent TPMs
in order to make a private copy (Mulholland Drive case, June
19 2008)

It shall be a matter for legislation in the countries of the Union to permit

such reproduction does not conflict with a normal exploitation of the
work and does not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests of the
