/cast vote for
'draconian' laws that
-only allow
'fair use' rights to supercede
'copyright holder' rights when the fair-use-user is doing so in a non-abusive, non-profitable and
fair manner.
-Dictate that digital products are treated with the same laws that hard goods are.
-clarify that a 'backup' stored in a manner accessible to anyone other than the person who owns the backup - is deemed to be unacceptable in terms of 'fair use'.
-clarify that 'time shifing' stored in a manner accessible to anyone other than the person who owns the time shifted content - is deemed to be unacceptable in terms of 'fair use'.
-Lay down rules that ISP's and Hosts will be given the go-ahead and authority to 'disconnect' flagrant abusers, and will themselves be watched for supplying services to flagrant abusers and disconnected themselves if they do not comply.
