Cruz said police told him that he broke a new law that prohibits people from taking pictures of police with cell phones.
"They threatened to charge me with conspiracy, impeding an investigation, obstruction of a investigation.... They said, 'You were impeding this investigation.' (I asked,) "By doing what?' (The officer said,) 'By taking a picture of the police officers with a camera phone,'" Cruz said.

Let's say I release a PD or CC work. Then some webcaster picks it up and claims copyright on that broadcast. Can I sue them for violating the copyright under which I release it? It IS my work, right, and I do have control over MY work, right?
Why shouldn't they be able to patent? This is a novel and useful technology reduced to practice for the first time, and is exactly the kind of thing that patents were designed to cover.
