There are efforts to prohibit private copying, which in plain English means taking away a right. We probably can't prevent the prohibition of private copying, but we don't support this idea and are thereby constantly contributing to the fact that new business ideas cannot develop on the market. - how short the reach of these federal idiots really is.
Private copying was absolutely legal before the massive cuts of the current government. There is no effort to allow it - there are efforts to prohibit it. A previously existing right for citizens is being taken away. And the federal shredder even thinks such a chubby victory would be a success. With politicians this fucking stupid, it's no wonder that political disaffection sets in. Every reasonably intelligent citizen must feel ripped off by something like this.
