From online shopping to cross-border accessing and disseminating digitised in copyright materials for entertainment and educational purposes, the continuous development of the internet has shaped the way in which its users manage their daily lives and businesses; consequently creating a progressively transnational digital society. Thus, it is no new feat that the internet's simpler and inexpensive modes of information dissemination, and access to knowledge (A2K), has brought to the fore economic concerns for copyright right-holders at the prospect of losing control over their digitised content.As a consequence, it is also no new phenomenon that content right-holders have sought strengthened intellectual property rights (IPRs) from various angles including, lobbying policymakers and use of technical protection measure (TPM) enabled digital rights management (DRM) systems as an additional layer of control over their digitised content. The use of TPMs is, in part, a consequence of traditional copyright law's difficulty in keeping pace with technological advancements; which has arguably contributed to the contours of copyright law's paradigm (the 'paradigm') becoming blurred. One area in which TPMs as a mode of regulation blurs the paradigm's contours pertains to A2K of digitised in-copyright works for digital distance learning (DDL) purposes. As evidence suggests TPMs have been utilised, as an additional later of in copyright content protection, by copyright right-holders to control A2K beyond the scope of governance prescribed anti-circumvention laws that regulate TPMs.As such, this research explores Directive 2001/29/EC's7 (Infosoc) Art.6 anticircumvention measures and aims to establish that Art.6(4)'s ambiguous wording, when interpreted and implemented into EU member state domestic laws, functions as a backdoor to increased IPRs for copyright right-holders; by creating an avenue for right-holders to 'regime-shift.' In view of this, the analysis considers the implications of backdoor propertization of creative works for end-users accessing and utilising knowledge for DDL purposes under Infosoc's Art.5(3)(a) teaching exception. This approach is undertaken due to existing contention surrounding the extent to which educators, as end-users, have the ability to digitally disseminate in-copyright content for educational purposes.Due to this contention and the myriad of implementation of Art.6 Infosoc into national laws, this research narrows its line of enquiry by predominantly analysing Art.6(4)'s implementation into the UK's Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988's s.32 (Illustration for instruction) and the topical s.29A Text and Data-Mining (TDM) exception. This approach aims to strengthen its position that backdoor IPRs place burdens upon end-users' ability to access knowledge for educational purposes. Due to this burden, this project argues that digital copyright law requires reform to support economic and societal development by extending the scope of Art.5 Infosoc's exceptions and limitations (E&Ls). As literature consulted suggests that the current E&Ls afford limited protection to end-users' ability to exercise their fundamental Art.5(3)(a) right to disseminate and access digitised in-copyright materials outwith traditional education institutional setting for DDL purposes.This argument for reform will be explored with attention paid to the requirement of supplementary measures to safeguard the paradigm's protection of the interests of creators and copyright right-holders.

从在线购物到在版权材料中以娱乐和教育目的进行数字化的跨境访问和传播，互联网的持续开发塑造了其用户管理日常生活和企业的方式；因此建立了一个逐步的跨国数字社会。因此，互联网的信息传播和获取知识（A2K）的更简单，更便宜的方式并不是在经济上引起了对版权右手持有人的经济关注，这是失去对数字化内容的控制权的前景。保护措施（TPM）启用了数字权利管理（DRM）系统，作为对其数字化内容的额外控制层。 TPM的使用部分是传统版权法在与技术进步保持同步方面的困难。可以说有助于版权法（“范式”）的轮廓变得模糊。 TPMS作为调节方式的一个领域模糊了范式的轮廓与A2K数字化的视野内数字化作品（DDL）的用途。正如证据所表明的那样，已使用版权右持有人来控制A2K，超出规定了规定的反循环规定的范围，该研究探索了指令2001/29/EC'S7（InfoSocococc）Art.6 Antioct Artsig衡量ARMSS SSS SSS SISS SSS SISS SISS SISS SSS SIC，这是在规定的A2 and tpms上，用来控制了TPM的A2K。被解释并实施到欧盟成员国国内法律中，是增加版权右翼者IPR的后门；通过为右手创建“政权班次”的途径。鉴于这一点，分析考虑了创意作品的后门物质在Infosoc的艺术下访问和利用知识的最终用户的含义。5（3）（a）教学例外。这种方法是由于现有的争论而进行的，该争论围绕着作为最终用户的教育者有能力以数字方式传播出于教育目的的侵权内部内容。这一争论和实施ART。6Infosoc对国家法律的实施。这项研究范围缩小了其询问的范围，通过对1988年的ART.6（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）（4）。 S.32（指令插图）和局部S.29a文本和数据挖掘（TDM）例外。这种方法旨在加强其后门IPRS为最终用户提供知识以进行教育目的的能力的立场。由于这一负担，该项目认为，数字版权法要求通过扩大ART范围来支持经济和社会发展。5Infosoc的例外和局限性（E＆LS）。正如文献所咨询的那样，当前的E＆L为最终用户行使其基本艺术的能力提供了有限的保护。5（3）（a）在传统的教育机构设置以外的传统教育材料中传播和访问的权利，以ddl的方式进行了探索。该改革的参数将探索，以探索对辅助措施的兴趣的概率，以探索补充措施的要求。右手。
