A report released yesterday by a pair of free-expression advocates at New York University Law School's Brennan Center
for Justice claims Web site owners and remix artists alike
are finding free-expression rights squelched because of

so-called "fair use" rights are under attack. It suggests
six major steps for change, including reducing penalties for
infringement and making a greater number of pro-bono lawyers
available to defend alleged fair users. BNA's Internet Law News (ILN) - 12/6/2005 Coverage at
