This is not the first time that Hatch has proposed heavy handed legislation in an attempt to combat piracy, and it won't be the last. I can only hope that he is rebuffed every time. If nothing, this is another example to the state the Orrin Hatch does not represent their interests when it comes to drafting and supporting legislation in the Senate. Perhaps one day there will be enough examples for us to be rid of him. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
