Just came across this folks
http://www.digitalfreedom.org/The Digital Freedom Campaign holds as its core value the recognition that new technologies are essential to the creativity and innovation that have allowed this nation to thrive. Digital technology enables anyone and everyone to be an artist and an innovator - to produce music, to create cutting edge films and videos, and to reach new audiences. For consumers, it allows individuals the ability to enjoy these new works when they want, where they want, how they want and to participate in the process. These are basic freedoms that must be protected and nurtured. The Digital Freedom campaign is dedicated to defending the rights of artists, innovators, creators and consumers to use lawful technology free of unreasonable government restrictions and without fear of costly lawsuits
There is a range of activities to help the campaign, starting with a petition, writing to congress, attending events etc.
The aims of this organisation match our own so I encourage you all to take part, we should not allow the Cartel to pay off its friends in authority to pass anti-consumer laws with impunity, take up the fight folks and let them hear the voices they have so far chosen to ignore.
