Eirik Gumeny, Comic Book Resources; Trump’s NAFTA Revision Could Further Extend Copyright Term (Or Not)
"An ambiguous press release from the United States government relating
to the North American Free Trade Agreement is causing unexpected
confusion for authors and copyright lawyers, as one specific document
seems to state that the copyright term may be extended to 75 years. The
wording, however, is unclear.
Per The Hollywood Reporter,
a fact sheet released today by the Office of the U.S. Trade
Representative indicated that the “copyright term” — the length of time
the creator of a particular work is entitled to certain protective
rights — would “extend” to 75 years. Currently, the copyright term is
set for the life of the author, plus 70 years."
