Subject: [TriLUG] (Slightly OT)New Bill in Congress would make
file-swapping a felony
There's a new bill floating around in Congress, which would make
uploading
even ONE
file over a P2P network a federal felony... get this...
punishable by FIVE
YEARS in
jail, and a $250,000 dollar fine.
Holy draconian laws, batman!
More details and discussion can be found at /.

Anybody who thinks this is stupid, please contact your
congressional
representatives, and register your opposition to this
nonsense....
