Floating in cyberspace are millions and millions of web pages that contain all sorts of content - be it images, videos or simply just text. But with all the abundance of information online, content copyrights are not equally preserved, or as some might put it, not easy to control. The recent ITU TELECOM WORLD 2009 re-opened the debatable topic of intellectual property and content copyrights online, recognizing it is one of the most fundamental ICT topics to date. ictQATAR had this exclusive interview with WIPO Director General, Francis Gurry in Geneva during the conference. Read the full interview in the lastest ictQATAR e-newsletter issue: http://www.ictqatar.qa/output/page1589.asp. Tell us what do you think - are consumers really benefiting from e-content copyrights? And do you think a day will come when users will avoid pirated content?
