PRO-IP Act

Yesterday, President Bush signed the PRO-IP Act into law. It essentially provides for stricter penalties for copyright infringement and allows for the seizure of any device that may have had contact with a copy-written work. Needless to say, this act has been met with mixed reactions. Personally, I think that the part of all this that allows for seizure of all your digital media devices is a little overboard as well as the new way a "work" is defined, if that part of the act turns out to be true. Dubya can't be out of the White House soon enough...
