Professor Ed Felten on the Analog Hole bill: "I can know the contents of the bill Congress is debating, but only if I pay $10k to a private party, and only if I promise not to tell anybody what is in the bill or engage in public debate about it." [Analog Hole Bill Would Impose a Secret Law]
Fred von Lohmann on Broadcast Flag: "Now the RIAA and MPAA want to betray that legacy by passing laws that will regulate new technologies in advance and freeze fair use forever." [New Senate Broadcast Flag Bill Would Freeze Fair Use]
