EFF: Prelude to a Fake Complaint by ryan is the supernicety at 7:01 pm EDT, Jun 24, 2004 |
] Apple's iPod music player seemed particularly vulnerable ] to attack. Any major record label could bring a strong ] lawsuit against Apple for "intentionally inducing" ] infringement under this new law with the iPod, both ] because it's plausible to argue that having an iPod ] enhances the lure of using P2P to download music (gotta ] fill all that space!) and because all the major record ] labels still believe that private sharing of songs from ] your CDs with friends is copyright infringement. We still ] disagree with the labels on these points, but the reality ] is that no court has yet convinced them that their legal ] theories are flawed. We also threw in Toshiba for making ] the iPod's hard drive and CNET for showing people how to ] move the iPod's music files. EFF's discussion of the potential uses of Sen. Hatch's ridiculous INDUCE ACT. Time to get reading, fellas, we may be in for another dmca-type fight. |

My take so far has been that this is so outlandish that it has a snowballs chance in hell of passing. Does it seem to have strong support in Washington? |
