The Case Against COICA; Electronic Frontier Foundation, 11/16/10

Peter Eckersley, Electronic Frontier Foundation; The Case Against COICA:

"In September, digital rights advocates and Internet engineers helped to delay the Combatting Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA), a terrible bill that would have allowed the Attorney General to censor the Internet in the name of copyright enforcement. Now that the November elections are over, COICA is back on the Senate Judiciary Committee schedule for markup this Thursday and could pass out of committee during the "lame duck" session of Congress."
