Kahle vs Ashcroft: Copyright Battle Continues
Robotech_Master writes "People may remember librarian Brewster Kahle as the man behind Archive.org's Wayback Machine and the Internet Bookmobile. He was one of the big supporters of Eldred in the Eldred vs Ashcroft case. Well, he's at it again. A new lawsuit, Kahle vs Ashcroft, has been filed as of March 22nd. Lawrence Lessig comments on this case in his blog." Question number 3 of the FAQ explains that while the Eldred case challenged the length of copyright expansion, this case challenges the breadth.

is an idiot. The guy might as well admit he believes it's his right to deprive the citizens of their constitutional rights. hopefully he'll die of cancer or something horrible.
Maybe Sharon and Arafat can go down on each other. That's what the Arabs and Israeli's really want.
Love thy neighbor.

It won't affect any laws. If you want the federal government to change a law, you sue the United States. It's always been that way. This ashcroft crap is just stupid media propoganda. Why don't they say "Dickless vs. Christianity" unless they have another reason to hate Ashcroft than his religious beliefs.
