FCC Copyright Plan

I believe it was Harry Truman who said something like "If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen." Wonder how many resignations will be forthcoming from the FCC after a year or two in everybody's copyright crosshairs?

Congress questions FCC copyright plan. A political rift over copy-protection standards for digital TV develops between the Federal Communications Commission and a key panel in the House of Representatives. [CNET News.com]

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
