|
Hi all -
I threw together a short letter below in response to Jay's email regarding
Senate Bill S.2395. Both Senator Clinton and Schumer have email webforms on
their websites. Their sites are: clinton.senate.gov and schumer.senate.gov.
They both have contact sections. Please feel free to copy and paste the
letter.
Cheers -
Matt
Dear Senator:
I am writing with regards to Senate Bill S.2395. This bill, if passed, would
strengthen those provisions of the DMCA which outlaw the distribution of DVD
playing software that runs under a free operating system such as Linux or
FreeBSD. This part of the general attack against the people's right to use
their computers in the privacy of their own homes as they see fit, and their
right to make and sell programs to others. I strongly urge you to vote
against this provision.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
