"We are not stomping anyone. This is a rights issue", said Helena Nosei, general director in Uruguay of the Entity for the Management of Audiovisual Producers Rights (Egeda), an international organization (present in Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Spain, United States and Uruguay) which manages the copyright of audiovisual producers.
Uruguayan Law 17.616, which regulates copyright, stipulates that holders can claim compensation for the exhibition of their works, although the standard does not apply to nonprofit or educational enterprises. "We will control only companies and organizations with economic purposes", stated Nosei.
