Hollings Is an Ass

From a posting by Peter Kaminski to a mailing list I’m on:

Here are some links [about the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act] I’ve collected. The first is a Declan McCullagh column that received wide weblog coverage, in which among other things he publishes a soon-to-be-felonious digital duplication program in its entirety:

10 INPUT A$
20 PRINT A$

Please visit the second and particularly the third links, wherein Senators Leahy and Hatch and the Senate Committee on the Judiciary are soliciting opinions on this and related matters via web form. Interactive government, what a concept!

Remember to cc your comments to your representatives, who may be found via the EFF link.
