A picture named cbdtpaButton.gifBTW, a note about the CBDTPA and what you can do about it. Signing electronic petitions is pretty easy, and therefore pretty powerless. Call your congressperson. Send a snail-mail letter. But more important, tell your friends, especially people who aren't in the computer industry. Tell your barber, your high school friend, call a radio talk show. Tell them that the government is out of step with the people. We love the Internet, and we want it to get better. The EFF cartoon is wonderful, charming, and truthful. Disney and its cronies are hiding behind the mouse. They paint warm and fuzzy pictures that lull us to sleep. We will lose the power to communicate. This a far more basic right than their power to take our money. We can have fun while we fight back. Tell your friends. Make the CBDTPA a new fun song. C-B-D-T-P-A. And when they call you a pirate tell them that's just plain wrong. [Scripting News]
