Takeaways | ||
Limitations for CHIs | Not in the Italian sense, I would not say. There are a few peculiarities. Like you're not allowed to share reproductions of the Nobel medal even though copyright has expired. There's also a "classics protection" where each work type is guarded by an institution to make sure that reproductions are not harming the "spirit" of the classics. Nazis were using an ancient poem the other day and this was taken to court by the custodian institution. For any purpose I think. | |
Reflections | Wikimedai Sverige asked the government about digitizing techniques that fall outside the scope of the related right for photographic images (such as 3D digitization). Their reply: The government also wants to emphasize that to the extent that a certain technology falls outside the category of photographic images, the Copyright Act does not offer any protection for the performance, if it does not constitute a copyright-protected work or is attributable to one of the other related rights harmonized within the EU. This applies regardless of what the motive for such reproduction is. In such cases, there are also no copyright obstacles to using the reproduction. | |
