I want to give a shout-out to the Indian government and whichever activists and legislators were responsible for the Right To Information laws. I was looking for IEC 60958 (the S/PDIF standard -- granted, not ISO but still proprietary) and found it available free on the Internet thanks to those laws, and presumably having been referenced in some other Indian law. The cover page [1] even includes affirmations of the right to knowledge. I wish other democracies could pull this off too.
