A, and, & the. See how easy it would be to shut down anyone... Sounds like the burden would then be on the guilty until proven innocent to go to court. This sounds like the French system.

That’s absolutely a concern.

The sad thing is, you go to any tech site and the communities are typically 75% liberal. So it’s interesting to see the outrage against the Democrats pushing this crap.

Of course, their criticism is usually limited to “meet the new boss, same as the old boss,” as if Bush tried any of this.

So, we must be careful, and take the time to learn which sources are going to cause a copyright problem.

First step in keeping FR from being shutdown is this:

Updated FR Excerpt and Link Only or Deny Posting List due to Copyright Complaints

EVERYONE should make this a link in their browser FAVORITES so they have quick access and can check for the rules for their 'source' article.

Yes, it's a pain in the butt. But so is not having F.R.

That is what I was thinking larry. is this designed to get sites like FR? never mind, I know the answer.

This homeland security stuff has opened up a whole lot of doors to liberal lawmakers.
