Unsafe Harbors: Abusive DMCA Subpoenas and Takedown Demands
,----[ Quote ]
| The DMCA has been used to invade the privacy
| of Internet users, harass Internet service
| providers, and chill online speech. The
| subpoena and takedown powers of Section 512
| are not limited to cases of proven copyright
| infringement, and are exercised without a
| judge's review. The following is a small
| sampling of abuse, overreaching, and
| mistakes in the use of Section 512(h)
| subpoenas, Section 512(c)(3)(A) notices, and
| equivalents. Judicial oversight could curb
| these abuses without interfering with
| copyright enforcement.

,----[ Quote ]
| Scherlis and other advocates of FCC
| regulation are encouraging gamers to support
| net neutrality out of a very real fear that
| your ISP may begin limiting access to select
| websites or imposing bandwidth caps in the
| near future.

NSA beats warrantless wiretap rap
,----[ Quote ]
| A Federal judge has dismissed a complaint
| against the National Security Agency's (NSA)
| Bush-era warrantless wiretapping programme,
| prompting suggestions the US government is
| now able to mount mass surveillance
| operations unhindered by the courts or
| constitution.
