Copyright Infringement: A History of Fear

100 years of Big Content fearing technology—in its own words

Great article from ars technica on the history of fear upon the release of new technologies.

I found Jack Valenti's thoughts on the VCR particularly interesting:

"I say to you that the VCR is to the American film producer and the American public as the Boston strangler is to the woman home alone."

Enjoy.
