Democratic group will take Napster's case to congress

Written by Petteri Pyyny @ 19 May 2000 19:59

Democratic group Progressive Policy Institute will ask congress to make some radical changes to Digital Millennium Copyright Act based on Napster's current case against Metallica.
DMCA does not require ISPs, which Napster is concidered to be in this case, to remove requested files and users within any given time limit. "Napster did it in hurry because of massive media publicity". Now this group wants to clear these and some other issues in this copyright law.
