Wired: Geeks Protest, Nobody Comes Mar 29, 2000, 16 :46 UTC (0 Talkback[s]) (3328 reads) (Other stories by Declan McCullagh)
"Only about 20 Washington-area Linux users and administrators showed up Tuesday
morning in front of the Capitol building to protest a controversial federal law called the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act."
""To a great extent this was an experiment to see if we could do a
protest," said David Niemi, a network engineer at Sallie Mae."
""I wish there was some way to get more people to learn how this would
affect them," said Ken Firestone, a DC Linux users group member who is a
system administrator at a newspaper."
