Section 252CF
Effect of application of sections 252A to 252CD
(1)
Sections 252A to 252CD do not limit the operation of the other provisions of this Part in relation to determining whether there has been an unauthorised use of a performance.
(2)
Nothing in sections 252A to 252CD shall be construed as making the applicability of sections 252A, 252B, 252C and 252CB conditional on —
a network service provider monitoring its service or affirmatively seeking facts indicating any unauthorised use of any performance, except to the extent consistent with any standard technical measure; or
a network service provider gaining access to, removing or disabling access to any electronic recording of any performance in any case in which such conduct is prohibited by law.
(3)
In subsection (2), “standard technical measure” means any technical measure accepted in Singapore that —
is used to identify or protect recordings or performances;
has been developed through an open, voluntary process by a broad consensus of performers and network service providers;
is available to any person on reasonable and non-discriminatory terms; and
does not impose substantial costs on network service providers or substantial burdens on their primary networks.
