More Details on the CBDTPA

Posted by michael on Friday March 22, 2002 @11:59AM from the only-the-beginning dept.

Gemini and many others wrote in with still more info regarding CBDTPA, formerly the SSSCA. Wired has a story. Cryptome has transcribed the text. The Senate Judiciary Committee has a web-form where you can submit comments (although directly contacting your representatives may be better). IMHO, the best thing people can do is explain to less-knowledgeable folks exactly what is at stake. When ABC News (Disney) and Fox News (News Corporation) discuss this, they're not going to be spending much time talking about the downside. Update: 03/23 00:55 GMT by M : EFF has an alert with a sample letter to Congress and background on the issue.

Thank you for your insightful, yet witty response. I would reward you with karma had I moderator points to give, but as yet I have none. I wish you well on your journeys. Have I mentioned my recent acquisition of a rather nice sack, within which I may store nuts?
