No, but high level government officers with access to all the legal advise they need, that claim copyrights over public domain works, a type of copyright infringement, should. For details see current related stories here on p2pnet about how the Smithsonian claims copyrights over public domain copyrights. Some jail time to legislators that routinely photocopy, without the proper authorization by the magazine, magazine articleswhere they appear (something they do all the time), would also be appropiate. “Should ordinary Americans face jail time for attempted copyright infringement?”

The RIAA and MPAA pay the politicians money and bribe them to pass these bills. At the same time, the government is corrupt for allowing it to happen and some of the officials even supporting it. Blame them both!! But you are right that the governemtn should be more to blame because the governemtn is supposed to be for the people and they don't have to do what the RIAA and MPAA says. A good governemtn for the people by the people would tell the RIAA and MPAA to fuck off. They are both fascists. The RIAA and MPAA pay the politicians money and bribe them to pass these bills.

After all, they introduce legislation, not the *AA. Yes they lobby, but they don't put the bills forward/vote. Don't blame the *AA, blame your government/politicians for allowing it to happen, and in most cases promoting it. The *AA are simply doing what ever they can get away with, and when the government is concerned, they offer little in the way of opposition. The real fascists are the government.

This is the RIAA and MPAA decalring a war against American public. It is 2004 all over again. In late 2004, it nearly passed and just barely failed to pass at the last second in late November. People better wake up and write to their congress people, spread the word, sign petitions opposing it and thus do everything they can to ensure a repeat of this fascist legislative attempts that nearly succeeded in 2004 doesn't happen again!!!! Scary as hell indeed!!! This is fascist legislation in attempt to make criminals out of ordinary Americans on behalf of the FASCIST RIAA and MPAA.
