The is what I found on the UK groverment website:
For copyright material issued to the public in an electronic form, a copyright owner may decide to use technical measures so that it is not possible to make a copy of the material, that is, it is copy-protected. It is also possible for copyright owners to use other technological measures to prevent other types of illegal uses of copyright material. Where a copyright owner has sold copies that are protected by technical measures, the copyright owner may have the right to take action against a person who circumvents or who makes, sells or otherwise deals in devices or means specifically designed or adapted to circumvent, the technical measures. The right to take action is equivalent to the rights a copyright owner has when suing for infringement of his or her copyright in the civil courts. Criminal offences may also apply to those who deal in the means to circumvent technical measures. It is also possible for copyright owners to use other technological measures to prevent other types of illegal uses of copyright material.
