Roll up, roll up!
Daithà (with a hat tip to Lessig) has come up with an excellent idea for this election year, and for our next government:
We know that a lot of interesting IP and IT law and policy issues … will make their way into new Cabinet workplans.
This week, I’m calling on interested parties (interested being those (bloggers or not) with an interest in the legal and policy elements of the Internet …) to join in. Each person will be responsible for one proposal, of her or his choice … to identify an existing law (â€?lawâ€? including whatever you want it to, and specifically including European directives, as a lot of the American issues are EU competence over here), and to suggest how it could be improved / amended / replaced / etc.
Brilliant idea. Wish I’d thought of it.…
