Congressman May Not Reintroduce Internet Piracy Bill
Rep. Howard L. Berman said he may abandon his controversial proposal to 
help Hollywood battle Internet piracy, in part because of complaints from 
an unexpected source: Hollywood. Berman introduced a bill in July to give 
movie studios, record companies and other copyright holders limited 
immunity from lawsuits if they used technology to block piracy on 
file-sharing networks such as Kazaa or Gnutella.
