Abstract
Rights expression languages (RELs) aim to express and gov- ern legally binding behavior within technological environments. The Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL), used to represent statements about the usage of digital assets, is among the most known RELs today and has become a W3C recommendation to enhance the web’s functionality and interoperability. This paper reflects on the representational power of ODRL from a practical perspective; utilizing use cases and examples, we discuss the challenges, issues, and limitations we came across while investigating the language as a potential solution for the regulation of data-sharing infrastructures.
