Congress Asks Universities To Enforce Copyrights

Posted by chrisd on from the college-adminstrators-as-cops dept.

Wes Felter writes "In CNet, Declan McCullagh writes that members of Congress are concerned that universities are not enforcing the 1997 No Electronic Theft Act which made simple copyright violations into a federal crime. Should universities be responsible for tracking down illegal sharing on their networks? Will ISPs be next?"
