Anti-circumvention v. Circumvention in background section?

Am confused by this sentence in the background section: “ The WIPO Copyright Treaty identified numerous electronic works as eligible for copyright protection, and stated that anti-circumvention of technology measures used to secure electronic works was to be prohibited. It’s not that anti-circumvention was to be prohibited, right? Circumvention was? Emtwelp (talk) 17:21, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, just had the wording wrong. --Masem (t) 17:42, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
