"I'm interested," Hatch interrupted
"There's no excuse for anyone violating copyright laws," Hatch said
The entertainment industry has gradually escalated its fight against Internet file-traders, targeting the most egregious pirates with civil lawsuits "
Last year, Rep "
Rep Rick Boucher, D-Va Boucher described Hatch's role as chairman of the Judiciary Committee as "a very important position, so when Senator Hatch indicates his views with regard to a particular subject, we all take those views very seriously senate The Recording Industry Association of America recently won a federal court decision making it significantly easier to identify and track consumers â€â€? even those hiding behind aliases â€â€? using popular Internet file-sharing software One technique deliberately downloads pirated material very slowly so other users can't
But Berman, ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary panel on the Internet and intellectual property, always has maintained that his proposal wouldn't permit hacker-style attacks by the industry on Internet users
"It wouldn't work," Kerr said "There's no way of limiting the damage
"The rights of copyright holders need to be protected, but some Draconian remedies that have been suggested would create more problems than they would solve," Leahy, D-Vt It would have lifted civil and criminal penalties against entertainment companies for disabling, diverting or blocking the trading of pirated songs and movies on the Internet Hatch Takes Aim at Illegal Downloading
Jun 17, 5:39 PM EST
The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said Tuesday he favors developing new technology to remotely destroy the computers of people who illegally download music from the Internet
"It's just the frustration of those who are looking at enforcing laws that are proving very hard to enforce," said Orin Kerr, a former Justice Department cybercrimes prosecutor and associate professor at George Washington University law school "If that's the only way, then I'm all for destroying their machines Patrick Leahy, the committee's senior Democrat, later said the problem is serious but called Hatch's idea too drastic a remedy to be considered , said in a statement
Legal experts have said any such attack would violate federal anti-hacking laws He said damaging someone's computer "may be the only way you can teach somebody about copyrights "
Some legal experts suggested Hatch's provocative remarks were more likely intended to compel technology and music executives to work faster toward ways to protect copyrights online than to signal forthcoming legislation Howard Berman, D-Calif
Sen He endorsed technology that would twice warn a computer user about illegal online behavior, "then destroy their computer Hatch: http://hatch gov
"No one is interested in destroying anyone's computer," replied Randy Saaf of MediaDefender Inc
â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
On the Net: Sen "
"If we can find some way to do this without destroying their machines, we'd be interested in hearing about that," Hatch said If you have a few hundred thousand of those, I think people would realize" the seriousness of their actions, he said "We need to work together to find the right answers, and this is not one of them
During a discussion on methods to frustrate computer users who illegally exchange music and movie files over the Internet, Hatch asked technology executives about ways to damage computers involved in such file trading Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, during a hearing on copyright abuses represent a dramatic escalation in the frustrating battle by industry executives and lawmakers in Washington against illegal music downloads , a secretive Los Angeles company that builds technology to disrupt music downloads
Kerr predicted it was "extremely unlikely" for Congress to approve a hacking exemption for copyright owners, partly because of risks of collateral damage when innocent users might be wrongly targeted , who has been active in copyright debates in Washington, urged Hatch to reconsider , ignited a firestorm across the Internet over a proposal to give the entertainment industry new powers to disrupt downloads of pirated music and movies
The surprise remarks by Sen "
The senator acknowledged Congress would have to enact an exemption for copyright owners from liability for damaging computers
