Conservative Commentator 01/28/2004 06:41 PM
James Glassman, most famous for predicting a "stocks are still cheap" 36,000 Dow Jones industrial average not long before the '90s bubble burst, rants here about George Soros, who's said he'll spend lots of money to help defeat Bush's reelection. Glassman cites "the monstrous hatred Soros has developed toward the President of the United States--hatred shared by others in his social circle." Funny how the right wing never was bothered by the absolute hatred that Richard Mellon Scaife and others in his social circle showed for Clinton. Oh right, that old hypocrisy thing again.

Musicians on the INDUCE act

Musicians on the INDUCE act 08/06/2004 01:14 PM

There's a bill currently being debated in the US Senate, called the INDUCE act (here's a good background on it), that aims to criminalize P2P networks, programmers, software compnaies, and anyone else that can be shown to help "induce copyright infringement."

There are a lot of problems with the act's broad language, but the Future of Music Coalition surveyed musicians to get their opinions on the target of the act, P2P networks. The final product of the survey is a letter to the senate committee debating the bill. The key points are illuminating and worth restating here: artists don't feature in discussions of the bill (just large music labels and technology companies), the bill assumes all copyright owners do not want their works shared on P2P networks (35% of musicians they surveyed saw value in P2P sharing for them), and the bill doesn't allow market-based (like licensing) solutions to occur. Former Creative Commons featured commoner Scott Andrew highlights the survey, the letter, and his problems with the bill in this post.

INDUCE to vomit

INDUCE to vomit 06/25/2004 03:39 PM
Senator Orrin Hatch introduced the INDUCE bill earlier this week with broad, vague limits on who could be sued for copyright infringement. No longer limited to just companies producing programs or those hosting programs, this bill intends to criminalize anyone that aids in copyright infringement. The EFF have produced a mock complaint against Apple for the iPod, since it can play illegally obtained mp3s just as easily as legally purchased ones. Ernest Miller has broken down Hatch's entire "for the children" speech that introduced the bill, in excruciating detail. Those who own mp3 players, TiVos, and other sorts of disruptive technologies should watch this one closely, it could get really ugly.

Induce Act Refuses to Die

Induce Act Refuses to Die 09/14/2004 11:00 AM
Last month, insiders in Washington felt the Induce Act, which would outlaw technology that could contribute to copyright infringement, was history. According to music activist organization Downhill Battle, a year-old organization dedicated to bringing balance to a debate often dominated by the RIAA and large music labels, this is no longer the case. "We were told by people on (Capital) Hill that it is less likely that the bill will come to the floor by itself and have a nice debate and vote," says Nicholas Reville, Downhill Battle Co-Founder. "More likely the Induce Act is going to be snuck through a back door in legislative procedure. The only supporters in any industry or interest group are in Hollywood. From their perspective (the Induce Act) is not going to happen if it gets full airing."

Tuesday is INDUCE call-in day

Tuesday is INDUCE call-in day 09/14/2004 03:48 AM
Xeni Jardin: As my colleague Cory blogged last week, Tuesday September 14 is "Save Betamax National Call-in Day."

Why Save Betamax? The short version: We're organizing a call-in day to Congress on September 14 to oppose new legislation that would undermine the Betamax decision (INDUCE Act). Here's why: The Betamax VCR died more than 15 years ago, but the Supreme Court decision that made the Betamax and all other VCRs legal lived on. In Sony vs. Universal (known as the Betamax decision) the Court ruled that because VCRs have legitimate uses, the technology is legal—even if some people use it to copy movies. Of course, the movie industry was lucky it lost the case against VCRs, because home video soon became Hollywood's largest source of revenue. And the freedom to use and develop new technology that was protected by the Betamax decision set the stage for the incredible growth in computer technology we've seen in the last few decades.

What got edited out of the Induce
hearings? 08/02/2004 03:02 AM
Peter was watching the hearings for Orrin Hatch's crackpot, iPod-criminalizing Induce Act, when he noticed an edit in the recording. What did Hatch and the Register of Copyrights say to one another during the gap?

Orrin Hatch (OH) : "During the august recess, I would like your office if they can to assist this committee in the efforts to identify and resolve potential concerns about potential abuses of international and domestic and intentional inducement liability. Could we count on your to help us with that?"

Marybeth Peters (MP) : "Absolutely, I just identified this as the most important question in copyright today. We would be more then happy to assist the comitte in facilitating, umm, and bringing about a hopefully a result that could work"

OH : "Yeah i'd heard that so I was just making sure that you..."

(Edit Start)

MP : "We would never say no to you"

(Edit End)

OH : "We'll that is an interesting comment"

INDUCE Act: Ipecac for Fair Use

INDUCE Act: Ipecac for Fair Use 06/28/2004 11:18 AM

I have an admission to make. Until about 5 minutes ago, I had never given money to the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Although I have advocated their support for years, encouraging others to donate -- even on Gizmodo -- my cheap bastardness kept me from digging out my wallet, which is terribly lame, and I apologize. Now, though, I've cleared out my Paypal account and joined -- and I didn't donate a lot, either. Just $25 -- but now I feel like I can go ahead and write the rest of this post without being a total hypocrite.

Ernest Miller brought to my attention something called the INDUCE Act, a bit of proposed law spearheaded by Senator Orrin Hatch that could possibly be used by record companies to sue companies that "induce infringements of the Copyright Act," meaning portable music stalwarts like Apple and Toshiba could be penalized for providing iPods (and the drives that power them) because they encourage users to download music. If by my description the proposed act seems too vague and indefinable, that's because, basically, it is. The INDUCE Act would be another weapon in the music industry's fight against its own customers -- you and me.

Anyway, the EFF, as usual, does as much better job explaining the cause for alarm, including a mock complaint against Apple and Toshiba that the INDUCE Act, if passed, could make possible. If you think they maybe have a point, you should throw them a little cash, too. Think of it as a tax on all that free music you've downloaded or traded with your friends (don't tell them I said that, though).

Xeni on NPR: INDUCE Act update

Xeni on NPR: INDUCE Act update 07/27/2004 01:18 PM
On today's edition of the NPR program "Day to Day," I speak with host Madeleine Brand about the Hatch/Leahy INDUCE Act, much-blogged here and there and elsewhere of late. The law seeks to ban technology that would "intentionally induce" copyright infringement. Hollywood and the recording industry back it, seeking new muscle to combat filesharing. Tech companies, digital liberty advocates, and geek activist groups like savetheipod.com say it's ill-conceived and badly written. In its current form, INDUCE would unfairly stifle innovation, they say -- and could outlaw a wide range of gadgets and services we take for granted, from iPods to PDAs to web search engines (et tu, Google?).
