Innovation Act: stop the patent trolls/Reform ECPA
December 6, 2013Please check out eff.org for information on our 48-hour window (closing soon!) to comment on the Innovation Act on which the House of Representatives will be voting next week. It is meant to stop the big patent trolls from intimidating small companies and individuals with lawsuits, etc. Here is a link to the call campaign: https://trollingeffects.org/call
Also, see The Consent Chronicle’s petition to reform the Electronic Communications Privacy Act by requiring the IRS, FBI, DEA, and local law-enforcement agencies to obtain warrants for E-mail spying. The petition is on White House site, so you need an account to sign: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/reform-ecpa-tell-government-get-warrant/nq258dxk There is a goal of 100,000 signatures: they are just past halfway, with 57,000+. Please help!
