EFF's Letter to the Senate on INDUCE

Posted by CowboyNeal on Friday July 30, 2004 @12:06AM from the getting-the-word-out dept.

z0ink writes "Picked up off of EFFector today a letter to all US Senators on the topic of IICA (Inducing Infringement of Copyrights Act of 2004 -- formerly the INDUCE Act). 'In February, EFF proposed an industry-led collective licensing solution that would ensure compensation for copyright owners while minimizing the need for governmental intrusion into the digital music marketplace,' writes EFF Executive Director Shari Steele in the letter. 'It's time for a solution to the P2P conflict that pays artists, not lawyers.' IICA has been covered here on Slashdot with more information available here."

Re:Ahh, "Flamebait" to any dissenting opinions by rokzy · 2004-07-30 00:57 · Score: 1, Troll

he's bring up the "stealing vs. infingement". that is flamebait. it is a fact that unauthorised copying of copyrighted works without the owner's permission is "copyright infringement" and not "theft". this is true and anyone denying it is ignorant or trolling.
