WIPO Casting Treaty
US del clarifies (sort of) position on “by any means”
June 21st, 2007 by James Love

This is technical. The United States delegation says

     “US did oppose deletion of “by any means” so that simultaneous
retransmission of traditional broadcasts on the internet is
covered…..but we never spoke on deferred retransmissions last night.”

However, in the texts that have been made public, the “by any means”
applies to both cases. The negotiations are now being held in secret.
