theweaselkingUS Senators attempt to "slip through" new copyright bill that makes the DMCA look like toilet paper, during seesion that nobody is paying attention to or attending.
Features of this bill include removal of "Fair Use", making it a criminal offense to store copyrighted material in a place where it *might* be possible to copy, making it a criminal offense to *not* watch commercials and promotions, and *requiring* the Justice Department to file civil copyright lawsuits on behalf of the entertainment industry.
