“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.”
