Summit: DMCA Blocks Tech Progress - Katie Dean, Wired

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act is threatening innovation in Silicon Valley, and it's time for businesses and consumers to mobilize to change the law. That was the message at the Digital Rights Summit here on Wednesday. Intel hosted the event at its Santa Clara headquarters with Digitalconsumer.org, an organization dedicated to protecting consumers' fair-use rights with regard to digital media. "I'm here today to tell you that I'm scared. Silicon Valley is under threat," said Joe Kraus, co-founder of Digitalconsumer.org.
