Keeping politicians' hands off the Net & everything else related to technology
Today’s Cato podcast features yours truly discussing the DMCA. Anastasia was obviously a friendly interviewer, but I still found it challenging to boil the complexities of the issue down to something that could be readily understood in a 10-minute interview. We discuss the French protests from earlier this month, what the recently-passed French law did, and how the courts were handling reverse engineering cases before Congress enacted the DMCA.
