Utah Rethinking Anti-Keyword Advertising Law

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the come-undone dept.

Eric Goldman writes "Slashdot previously reported on Utah's recent law banning trademark-triggered keyword advertising. This week, a group of technology executives met with Utah legislators to discuss the law, and it looks like the legislature is rethinking its position. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, 'Legislative leaders are looking to tweak a troublesome trademark protection program rather than defend it in court, after an unprecedented meeting with Internet power brokers who would prefer the new registry be scrapped.'"

    ----- If you post AC, then you are a coward without conviction of belief. Therefore you will not be taken seriously.
    And if you browse AC, then you won't be able to this sig.

    Seriously though, profiling ACs? I don't think there's a group who could care less.
