The wannabe monopolists intent on controlling the technology you use, and suppressing your rights to talk about it, are making another power grab through political influence buying. This time, it's musician-wannabe Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Disney), sponsoring something called the EnForce Act, which is actually an anti-trust exemption for our beloved oligopolists. Can you think of good policy reason that these guys should have a special case carved out of an act that seems designed to control exactly their behavior? Me neither. A good time to drop e-mail on your Senators - maybe there are a few with guts left out there.
