Senate Hearing Webcast Today On DMCA Subpoena Powers

An anonymous reader sends this clipping from the Senate Commerce committee website about today's hearing into "consumer privacy implications of the use of subpoena powers by copyright holders to obtain the identities of Internet subscribers allegedly infringing on their copyrights. Members also will examine whether the government can mandate content protection technologies without limiting consumers' legal uses of digital media products. Senator Brownback will preside. Tentative witness list will be available at a later time." Here's a link to both the schedule and the webcast itself; it starts at 10:00 a.m., EST.
