== Criticism == {{Main |Criticism of copyright }} Some sources are critical of particular aspects of the copyright system. This is known as a debate over [[copynorms]]. Particularly to the background of uploading content to internet platforms and the digital exchange of original work, there is discussion about the [[copyright aspects of downloading and streaming]], the [[copyright aspects of hyperlinking and framing]]. Concerns are often couched in the language of [[digital rights]], digital freedom, [[database right]]s, [[open data]] or [[censorship]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://edri.org/press-release-meps-ignore-expert-advice-and-vote-for-mass-internet-censorship/ |title=MEPs ignore expert advice and vote for mass internet censorship |publisher=European Digital Rights |access-date=24 June 2018 |date=20 June 2018 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Copyright Week 2019: Copyright as a tool of censorship|url=https://edri.org/our-work/copyright-week-2019-copyright-as-tool-of-censorship/|access-date=27 February 2021|website=European Digital Rights (EDRi)|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=23 May 2016|title=Revealed: How copyright law is being misused to remove material from the internet|url=http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/may/23/copyright-law-internet-mumsnet|access-date=27 February 2021|website=The Guardian|language=en}}</ref> Discussions include ''[[Free Culture (book)|Free Culture]]'', a 2004 book by [[Lawrence Lessig]]. Lessig coined the term [[permission culture]] to describe a worst-case system. The documentaries ''[[Good Copy Bad Copy]]'' and ''[[RiP!: A Remix Manifesto]]'' discuss copyright. Some suggest an [[alternative compensation system]]. In Europe consumers are acting up against the rising costs of music, film and books, and as a result [[Pirate Party|Pirate Parties]] have been created. Some groups reject copyright altogether, taking an [[Copyright abolition|anti-copyright]] stance. The perceived inability to enforce copyright online leads some to advocate [[Crypto-anarchism|ignoring legal statutes when on the web]].
