	Copyright law of the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Copyright in a bill in Parliament, the Scottish Parliament or the Northern Ireland Assembly subsists from the moment a bill is introduced into the legislature to the moment it either fails to pass or receives Royal Assent.
		Copyright in films protected as such is determined by the life of the principal director, the author of the screenplay, the author of the dialogue and the composer of any original music for the film.
		Subject to obligations that the United Kingdom was under on 29 October 1993, the duration of performance rights of non-EEA nationals is that of their home country, provided that such a duration does not exceed the duration in UK law.

		Copyright is a type of intellectual property; designs or industrial designs may be a separate or overlapping form of intellectual property in some jurisdictions.
		Copyright concepts are perceived to be under challenge in the modern technological era, from the increasing use of peer to peer filesharing, to the downward trend in profits for major record labels and the movie industry.
		Once the term of a copyright has expired, the formerly copyrighted work enters the public domain and may be freely used or exploited by anyone, as courts in the United States and the United Kingdom have rejected the doctrine of a common law copyright.

		The United Kingdom, often referred to as "Britain", is a constitutional monarchy and unitary state composed through a political union of four constituent entities: the three constituent countries of England, Scotland and Wales (known as the Home Nations) on Great Britain, and the province of Northern Ireland on the island of Ireland.
		At the April 2001 UK Census, the United Kingdom's population was 58,789,194, the third-largest in the European Union (behind Germany and France) and the twenty-first largest in the world.
		Also sometimes associated with the United Kingdom, though not constitutionally part of the United Kingdom itself, are the Crown dependencies (the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey, and the Isle of Man) as self-governing possessions of the Crown, and a number of overseas territories under the sovereignty of the United Kingdom.

		Copyright arose from the idea that anything we create should be protected from use by someone else, reflecting the fact that the creator has exclusive rights over the thing created.
		Copyright law protects these rights, including the copying or lending of material and ensures that some access to copyright work is allowed.
		Copyright material in the United Kingdom is currently protected by the 1988 Copyright Act and its subsequent amendments.

		After looking at a number of these laws, provisions, treaties, etc., it seems to the CodeWarrior, that real freedom is being seen in Europe, like some pesky arthropod that needs to be stepped on, and stepped on hard.
		Part of the underlying problem, is that not only do these copyright laws and measures seek to trample on digital consumer's rights, but they are confusing.
