The entertainment industry has sneaked language into an obscure copyright bill that could smash Internet fair use. The law implies that licenses from copyright holders are needed for every digital copy made in the transmission of digital media -- including cached copies on servers or on your hard drive, and even temporary copies in RAM. The wording is headed for a key vote in the House Judiciary committee in the next two weeks. Don't let the music industry turn your cache into their cash. Check below to see if your representative is on the right committee, and call them now!
