In Cem Kaner’s blog: Software Customer Bill of Rights Cem Kaner discusses issues related to increasingly restrictive end user licensing agreements for various software, and how they are diverging from commonly accepted fair use rights for both software and other copyrighted works. Finally, he addresses issues of embedded software in items like automobiles, medical devices, etc. All in all a good read. Would also be a good item to forward to a legislator, both federal and state, seeing as “UCITA”:http://www.law.upenn.edu/bll/ulc/ucita/2002final.htm and other laws have been aggressively pursued on the state level.
