Description 107-113
Part I of the research paper attempts to introduce the conceptual understanding of user generated content and the
copyright issues related to UGC, following which Part II will present a critical analysis of the problems contained in the
Fair use defence as enshrined in the United States legislation. Part III of the research paper will try to argue as to why the
non-commercial UGC exception as enshrined in Section 29.21 of the Canadian Copyright acts till remains the much-needed
answer which UGC has been looking for so long now, along with a few concluding thoughts. Throughout the paper, the
author tries to argue that the new exception, namely the non-commercial user generated exception is the much-needed
UGC protection with respect to the commercial aspect of any user created content on online platforms.
