Fans and the Intellectual Property Protection Act of 2007

[quicksilvereyes.livejournal.com]

Hi,

I've been researching the bill for the IP Protection Act of 2007 that was proposed a little over a week ago and have come up with some very scary results. It basically increases the punishment for copyright infringement to the point where you can serve up to a lifetime in prison in some cases. In my journal, I discuss more about the act and what it means for fans. Especially in light of this whole FanLib Kerfluffle and the fact that it was introduced right after FanLib launched.
