Purpose and ScopePurpose and ScopePurpose and ScopePurpose and Scope“We will seek ways to reduce the inappropriate use of P2P technology without restricting free speech and expression, invading privacy, or limiting the legitimate uses of P2P. The systematic implementation of thoughtful programs of education on copyright rights and responsibilities and appropriate and inappropriate uses of P2P technologies should be a central component of such actions. The development and application of carefully crafted policies and procedures for network management can also reduce inappropriate uses while preserving appropriate uses of those networks. As always, universities will respond appropriately to all legal requirements.”
