The US constitution with DRM

The US constitution with DRM 06/24/2004 09:33 PM

Lessig

this is the constitution on DRM

So jump over here to Amazon.com where you can purchase an electronic version of the Constitution, fitted very nicely to a Microsoft Reader (not Mac compatible), and protected quite completely with DRM. The description says you're not permitted to print it. The reader reviews report you're permitted to print it twice a year. And don't try to hack the code to print it more than twice -- until Boucher's H.R. 107 passes at least. (Though the ranking is higher than for my book. Maybe free fails after all?) (Thanks Paul!)

Now who in their right mind would buy a copy of the US constitution in a form that they couldn't freely print? Or maybe they're going to try to get the government to stop distributing for free. ;-p

It was first brought up last year by Senator Richard Shelby, Rep. Robert Aderholt, and Roy "Ten Commandments" Moore. I wonder if section 201 of the CRA will affect Article VI, Sect. 2.

We Don't Need No Stinking Constitution

We Don't Need No Stinking Constitution 06/03/2004 07:01 PM

Dahlia Lithwick (Slate): Proof, Negative: The Justice Department's triumphant victory over the Constitution. The evidence in thi s document was collected during a two-year detention, in which Padilla was in solitary confinement, never charged with a crime, and only given access to his attorney this spring. Certainly his confessions might still be reliable, along with the confessions of Abu Zubaydah and other confederates being interrogated in secret. Or they might not. Without a trial we can never know, and as Phil Carter recently observed, there can now be no trial on the strength of this evidence since it was obtained unconstitutionally.

Jonathan Turley (LA Times): You Have Rights -- if Bush Says You Do. In a moment of extraordinary and chilling honesty, (Dep. Attorney General) Comey explained that Padilla had to be stripped of his civil liberties because, if he used them (including his right to remain silent or his right to a lawyer), he might have been able to win his freedom. Thus, the government had to keep him away from lawyers and judges at all costs. Gone was the pretense of legality or principle. The Justice Department had finally found its natural moral resting point: Civil liberties are tolerated only to the extent that they will not interfere with the government's actions. Meanwhile, Zacarias Moussaoui, a foreign citizen accused of terrorism, was presumably given his rights in federal court because, given the case against him, the government thought those rights would do him little good.

First the Bush administration jails a man solely on its say-so, allowing no access to a lawyer or a chance to defend himself. It extracts, apparently, a "confession" of some sort. (Did it use the same tactics as in Iraq and Afghanistan lockups?) Then, just as the Supreme Court gets ready to rule on whether the president can overrule the Bill of Rights on his whim, this information is suddenly made public. As Turley notes, this is a press release aimed at the justices as much as the American people. Padilla may indeed be the scum of the earth. But if they can do this to him, they can do this to innocent people. People like you. Think about it.

Let's amend the US Constitution! 03/06/2004 01:55 AM
With the issue of homosexual marriage getting so much attention in the United States, President George Bush has said he will support an amendment to the United States Constitution defining marriage to be between only one man and only one woman. This has sparked a national debate on the issue of constitutional amendments, their place in modern politics, and what is or is not an appropriate use of the constitutional process. Whether you agree with Bush's stance on the issue of homosexual marriage or not, the fact that the constitutional process is being discussed by citizens across the country can only be a good thing. With the presidential election occurring in a few months, and the constitutional process in the forefront of American politics, there is no finer time than now to discuss other possible constitutional amendments that would ensure our freedoms and strengthen our country. Below are three such suggested amendments.

If the Constitution was a EULA

If the Constitution was a EULA 03/26/2005 05:13 AM
Cory Doctorow: The current administration has spent the past four years treating the Constitution as though it were a EULA and subject to change without notice. Slate's "Important Changes to Your Citizenship Agreement" reviews some of these changes in a compact and helpful form.

SECTION 5 The Freedom of Speech section of the Agreement is amended to distinguish between Regular Preferred Speech and Non-Preferred Speech. The Non-Preferred Speech rate applies to all speech which is not in good standing as defined under the "Preferred Citizen Rate Eligibility" section of your Agreement. Both the rate and your freedom of speech may vary based on changes in the National Terror Alert Level...

SECTION 16
This amendment affects the Right to Privacy section of your agreement. Under the new terms, the Right to Privacy must be applied for on an individual basis. To apply for your Right to Privacy, you must send your full credit history, a copy of your party registration and church membership, a complete set of fingerprints, a DNA sample, and two (2) passport-size photographs of your bedroom to: National Privacy Registry, Washington, DC, 20012-3006, att: Doris.

The "Constitution Restoration Act"

The "Constitution Restoration Act" 04/08/2005 06:04 PM
The "Constitution Restoration Act". `Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, the Supreme Court shall not have jurisdiction to review, by appeal, writ of certiorari, or otherwise, any matter to the extent that relief is sought against an entity of Federal, State, or local government, or against an officer or agent of Federal, State, or local government (whether or not acting in official or personal capacity), concerning that entity's, officer's, or agent's acknowledgment of God as the sovereign source of law, liberty, or government.'

This article claims that this bill is almost certain to pass, and that if it does that no Federal court or judge will have jurisdiction over any Federal, State, or local government entity or official who claims God's law.

Are these claims true? Why isn't there a fuss?

To my knowledge, this marks the first time a major DC policy group has attempted to use the iPod to accomplish its goals." Link
