Orrin Hatch, Teacher Of Copyright Law
Sen. Orrin Hatch 'all for destroying' file swappers' computers (that's not a synopsis, it's the actual headline):
"No one is interested in destroying anyone's computer," replied Randy Saaf of MediaDefender Inc., a secretive Los Angeles company that builds technology to disrupt music downloads. One technique deliberately downloads pirated material very slowly so other users can't.
"I'm interested," Hatch interrupted. He said damaging someone's computer "may be the only way you can teach somebody about copyrights."
