Abstract

This paper will discuss several provisions of ACTA and its intersection with U. S. copyright law. Section II will discuss general provisions of copyright law, section III will address the various international intellectual property law treaties, and section IV will discuss three main areas addressed by ACTA: criminal liability, internet service providers, and technological protection measures. Section IV will also discuss how these areas conflict with or advance U.S. copyright law.
