New Legislation May Decriminalize Digital Personal Use

What do you know? Some congresspeople are starting to get it.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren and Rep. Rick Boucher will both be introducing bills that give consumers back their personal use rights for digital media, and amend the DMCA (a.k.a. “The Evil Digital Millennium Copyright Act”) to decriminalize personal use.

Jack “your world frightens and confuses me” Valenti predictably believes these bills will mean the end of the movie industry. Just like VHS did, one supposes? Link
