Title: Amendment to digital rights bill could block youtube
Post by: Gary on Mar 12, 2010, 10:33:20
A controversial amendment to the digital rights economy bill which could block youtube and similar sites looks like it has been copied word for word from a draft by the BPI, and the BPI has confirmed they have drafted a amendment they have circulated to the government and opposition peers, oh deep joy, soon it wont be worth having a computer for the amount of restrictions we may have in place  :mad:

The BPI has too much influence. I'd like to know why.

I see they plan to reduce the deficit with no tax rises and continued public spending. That should be interesting...
