Rep. Adam Schiff jumps on bandwagon

In “Another Punch for Copy Protection,” Wired.com is reporting that Rep. Adam Schiff has jumped on the copy-protection bandwagon started in the Senate. “A Democratic legislator from the home of the Walt Disney and Warner Bros. studios is drafting a bill to reduce online piracy by implanting strict copy controls in digital devices … his bill would take a similar approach as the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act (CBDTPA) that already has been introduced in the Senate.” Isn’t it amazing how these representatives of the people are only drafting laws that benefit big business? How much money is your soul worth?
