I don't know why people are getting so upset about this.

Canada has had a very similar law for decades and it only really gets used when people want to legally duplicate architectural drawings and land surveys where the original person who drew it is out of business or dead.

I hardly see this as opening the flood gates to mass legal copying of photos from the Internet. People who are going to copy and repost photos without regard for copyright are already doing it today. This law won't change that, and I doubt they will go though the hassle of following these proposed rules.
