Sellers of circumvention devices beware!
On March 1, the Federal Court of Canada awarded Nintendo of America Inc. $12,760,000 in damages for copyright infringement and the circumvention of technological protection measures, or TPMs. The recent decision of Nintendo of America Inc. v. King marks the first time a Canadian court has provided comprehensive guidance on the Copyright Act’s prohibition on the circumvention of TPMs and confirms the willingness of Canadian courts to significantly punish organization and individuals that attempt to circumvent TPMs used to protect valuable intellectual property rights.
