Corporations are using it against the public. Public/College radio stations can no longer afford to webcast.
The NEW DMCA: Bill the Hollywood cartels don.t want you to see
From IPac: Many of you have seen or heard about the new amendment to the DMCA
being sent to Congress by the Dep. of Justice. We've gotten a copy of
the proposed bill and it's worse than we could have imagined.
This
is a concerted effort to escalate Hollywood's war on America by
creating a generation of criminals and sending them off to jail. That's
right: the "Intellectual Property Protection Act of 2006" (IPPA) would
double the authorized prison terms for existing copyright infringement,
create a host of new offenses, and establish a division within the FBI
to hunt down infringers. The Members of Congress in the pockets of the
Hollywood cartels want to divert $20 million a year and FBI agents from
fighting real criminals so they can go after people without computers.
