ABSTRACT
The enforcement of copyright law has become increasingly complex in the digital era, raising significant challenges in protecting creators' rights. This paper examines issues related to copyright infringement, fair use, and legal liabilities across different jurisdictions, with a particular focus on India. It explores the fair use doctrine in India, the United States, and the European Union, analyzing key legal interpretations and distinctions that influence copyright enforcement. The study also addresses secondary liability, including vicarious and contributory infringement, in the context of unauthorized digital content distribution. Additionally, recent legislative changes, such as the EU’s Copyright Directive, are reviewed to assess their impact on copyright regulation and intellectual property law. The paper further evaluates the role of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in promoting international copyright standards. As digital content consumption continues to rise, this study highlights the necessity of evolving legal frameworks to balance the protection of intellectual property with public access to information. The findings provide insights into potential policy reforms that ensure greater clarity and adaptability in copyright law while addressing emerging legal challenges.
