Copyright Act 1987 (Act 332), s. 13(2)(a) and s. 13(2A) (Fair Dealing) · Read the law's page
- A fair dealing exception may excuse limited reproduction, quotation, or reporting of another's copyright work for research, private study, criticism, review, or reporting news or current events, weighed against the purpose, nature, amount used, and market effect of the dealing.
- Malaysia has no text-and-data-mining exception or database right, so reproducing or extracting a substantial part of a work or database to train a model is not otherwise excused.

Computer Crimes Act 1997 (Act 563), s. 3 (Unauthorised Access to Computer Material) · Read the law's page
- Do not cause a computer to perform a function to secure access to a program or data where that access is unauthorised and you know it to be unauthorised.
- Reading a public, unauthenticated page without defeating any access control falls outside a plain reading of this section, though no reported Malaysian decision addresses the point either way.
