19. Fortunately, plenty of Senators are lawyers...
...and as such are smart enough to understand that the INDUCE act is an utter legal nightmare, which I suspect is why it hasn't gone anywhere in the past three years. I doubt RIAA/MPAA would actually push something similar again. Their tactics seem to have changed to directly targeting consumers with lawsuits. Yes, they keep on with the DRM, even though they know it doesn't work. It's just a sham so they can continue to claim that they're vigorously defending their copyrights. If anything, I'd like to work towards overturning the really vile portions of the DMCA. That's a much more achievable goal, and one that would have tangible results.
