I thought the digital rights bill was in favour from most of the parties now, in one shape or another?
Yes, pretty annoying really. I think Lib dems still say their against it but there was no display of the in the voting. Tories came out as backing it a week or so ago which is a shame.
On the upside they dropped Clause 43 in the wash up which was going to savage photographers copyright of their own images. Hopefully the rest of the bill will also be trashes in the house of commons althought that seems unlikely. On the one hand the government is calling the internet a basic human right and on the other its giving itself the power to cut people off. Removing someones basic human right? Sounds like an EU law infringement to me.
