Glenn Reynolds has an interesting column on the real reasons Big Media is out for technical copyright protections.
What they’re trying to do is to create a system that’s not so much proof against copying – a mostly impossible task anyway – as a system that’s very unfriendly to content that comes from anyone other than Big Media suppliers. It’s not about copying. It’s about competition.
Which makes why folks like Biden and Hollings are busy doing everything they can to support these efforts even less justifiable.
