Finally! Some good news

From this article:
Quote:
The IT industry's giants including Intel will rally behind a bill to be announced by Congressman Rick Boucher in Washington DC, tomorrow morning.
Quote:
Lofgren's proposed "Digital Choice And Freedom Act Of 2002" (DCFA) [summary ; full text] will ensure that consumers will be able to make copies, sell or reuse digital media they own; prohibits non-negotiable shrink wrap licenses and decriminalizes non-infringing circumvention devices.
Lets hope it gets through!!
