Copyright Hysteria

Journal Entry: Tue Apr 15, 2008, 7:58 PM

There seems to be some hysteria on DA over the Orphan Works Bill... I'm not stating a position on the bill itself, I'm just saying "Read the bill" before you start screaming. I know some people here have read the bill and understand what's going on, but the vast majority of the comments I've seen on this site clearly reveal that the commenters have no idea what they're talking about.

EDIT:
Here's a GREAT journal on the Orphan Works issue and the current hysteria:
