06/17/2005 06:14 PMArrrr! Sony BMG is unveiling a new CD technology to provide a
“speed bump” for those nasty pirates. The new CDs only
allow for three duplicates to be made and can only be ripped to a
computer in a protected format. Legal problems are already arising,
though; the protected rip format forbids the music from being put onto
the Apple iPod, so BMG is sending emails to inquiring customers with
instructions on a backdoor route around this problem. Nice one,
Sony!

Building your own station is also illegal. Dunifer advises his
students to enlist the help of an attorney before hopping the
airwaves. But he describes microbroadcasting as "electronic civil
disobedience" rather than a typical criminal act.
"As far as I'm concerned, the real pirates are the NAB (National
Association of Broadcasters) and their member stations," Dunifer said,
referring to the powerful lobbying group. "They've stolen the airwaves
with the full complicity of the FCC and Congress."

Senate approves PIRATE act
Senate approves PIRATE act
06/26/2004 02:42 AMToday, the U.S. Senate approved a proposal that will give federal
prosecutors the power to file civil lawsuits against suspected
copyright infringers -- penalties include fines up to hundreds of
thousands of dollars.
The so-called Pirate Act has raised alarms among copyright lawyers and
lobbyists for peer-to-peer companies, who have been eyeing the
recording industry's lawsuits against thousands of peer-to-peer users
with trepidation. They worry that the Department of Justice could be
even more ambitious.
Senate leaders scheduled Friday's vote under a procedure that required
the unanimous consent of all members present. Now the Pirate Act,
along with a related bill that criminalizes using camcorders in movie
theaters, will be forwarded to the House of Representatives for
approval.

Cory Doctorow:
Science Fiction World, a Chinese magazine, recently published an issue
with a translation of my story "Nimby and the D-Hoppers" (originally
published in June 2003). They didn't ask first, so technically this is
a "pirate" edition, but hell, I'm not all that worked up about it --
I'm pretty pumped to know that there are people in China reading my
stuff (and for what it's worth, foreign publishers usually pay teeny
little pittances for translation rights to short stories).
My only peeve here is that they never sent me a copy, and never put
their translation on the Web. I sent 'em some email but they never
answered.
So here's my challenge to the lazyweb: track down a copy of the
September issue of Science Fiction World and re-type the story that
starts on page 12 ("Technological Opposition and the
Dimension-Hopper") and send it to me. I'll post it on the Internet and
make it available under a Creative Commons license for free
reproduction.

Cory Doctorow:
I ran into the editors of Science Fiction World, the Chinese magazine
that translated and printed my story "Nimby and the D-Hoppers" without
asking (or even letting me know!), at the WorldCon. They gave me a
copy of the issue, which has super-cool anime-style illos, and have
promised to send me the text electronically to post under a Creative
Commons license when they get back to China.
They say that they have a deal with the Chinese copyright office where
if they give a royalty to the office, they get permission to translate
and publish the story -- this sounds to me like a weird, and somewhat
wishful reading of the appendix to the Berne agreement on the
compulsory translation right.
In any event, I'm not all that out-of-sorts about this (I wasn't to
begin with, and less so now that I've made some peace with them). I'll
let you know if they come through with the electronic text and post it
once they do -- thanks so much for all the support on this, it was
really cool to see everyone spring into action (and I had no idea that
Boing Boing/I had so many Chinese-speaking/residing readers!).
