Apparently, the recent victory against the DTV broadcast flag was short-lived. From the EFF website, via slashdot, we learn that Hollywood has snuck an amendment into an appropriations bill in Senate subcommittee.
Of course, anyone who cares about fair use, and keeping Hollywood from controlling what you can do with broadcast programming should follow the link and sign the petition opposing the amendment. (Note: It looks like the form has an automatic "forward to your congressperson" function, but the especially motivated should, of course, contact their legislators directly.)
