I said this for a long time. we are playing whack the mole, a game we can not win, and with every passing year, the ability to roll this back gets dimmer and dimmer.
I don't even know where to begin anymore. The DMCA might not even be the biggest problem we now have. The current problem of human trafficking in the way of your iphone/android GPS and data collection, in combination of the "voluntary" end of private ownership of personal data by the use of cloud computing is more onerous and makes much of the DMCA obsolete.
I'm open to ideas, but nothing listed is making me excited to think!!! Ahhh, this will finally make people understand.
