Is CAIP liable for the use of cached copies?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Canadian Broadcasting Corp. v. SODRAC 2003 Inc., [2015] 3 SCR 615, 2015 SCC 57 (CanLII):
That is precisely why the cached copies at issue in SOCAN v. CAIP, copies that were created as a result of the activities of the Internet service providers, did not bring the providers beyond the exception from liability for persons who provide only the means of telecommunication necessary for another person to communicate a work. The central activity of the providers was providing a conduit for communication, and the cached copies were created solely for the purpose of delivering faster and more economic service to internet users.
