For the last few years, a coalition of technology companies, academics and computer programmers has been trying to persuade Congress to scale back the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Now US Congress is preparing to do precisely the opposite. A proposed copyright law seen by CNET News.com would expand the DMCA's restrictions on software that can bypass copy protections and grant federal police more wiretapping and enforcement powers.

There is a link on the page to the website to sign the petition. Write your Congressman/Congresswomen and tell them how you feel. If you do nothing about it then bitch about the outcome I have no sympathy. I have taken the time to personally write my Congressmen on the issue and will go to the Senate website and check how they vote on the issue. I sugesst those that don't like this do the same.
