It's a few days old, but in case you haven't heard...
As if pushing the broadcast flag through wouldn't be enough to make the
MPAA/RIAA happy... The latest proposed legislation trying to
retroactively ratify the FCC's broadcast flag regulations adds new
wording to completely prohibit new, better ways of working with media
(I'm pretty sure that includes Myth) unless approved by the FCC (giving
the lobbyists a chance to add their input in the decision-making
process). Bill courtesy of Sen. Gordon Smith (R-Ore.).
