![]() From the Washington Post 6/25/2002 >>>Copyright holders would receive carte blanche to use aggressive tactics to stop the illegal distribution of their works on online services like Morpheus and Kazaa under legislation outlined today by Rep. Howard Berman (D-Calif.). << Read the whole Text: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2002Jun25.html The author of the Bill : Howard Berman's web page (read More) http://www.house.gov/berman/ I thought "Denial of Service" was against the law. This bill if passed will allow the RIAA and MPAA to flood the net with false files, inturn slowing if not halting servers. What can you do? (1) If you live in the United States contact your local representative and your local congressman and voice your complaint. (2) Copy and paste this message and email it to everyone you know and ask them to act!!! How to contact your local representative: http://www.house.gov/writerep/ How To contact your local congressman: http://www.visi.com/juan/congress/ If you live outside the United States find out who represents you and your government regarding the use of the internet and let them know how big an issue this is. This effects everyone world wide. One posting of this is sufficient. You are posting this same message in many forums. Please do not. Once is enough.
