"Each Party shall provide adequate legal protection and effective legal remedies
against the circumvention of effective technological measures that are used by authors,
performers or producers of phonograms in connection with the exercise of their rights, and that restrict acts in respect of, their works, performances, and phonograms, which
are not authorized by the authors, the performers or the producers of phonograms
concerned or permitted by law."
The above is effectively censorship: making certain numbers illegal. It's exporting some of the DMCA and the european copyright act to countries that don't have it already.
I can forsee subsection 7 of section 5 having implications for ISPs:
"
To protect electronic rights management information, each Party shall provide
adequate legal protection and effective legal remedies against any person knowingly
performing without authority any of the following acts knowing, or with respect to civil
remedies, having reasonable grounds to know, that it will induce, enable, facilitate, or
conceal an infringement of any copyright or related rights:
(a) to remove or alter any electronic rights management information;
(b) to distribute, import for distribution, broadcast, communicate, or make
available to the public copies of works, performances, or phonograms,
knowing that electronic rights management information has been
removed or altered without authority."
