And their TV commercials?  Can we 'suspect' them off the air??

John C:
That's the dream, but they're probably exempt.  After all, the deal made with copyright (even though I don't believe any administration has given it any thought) is that, in exchange for the distribution monopoly, the government automatically has a license.

(Which is a problem I have with automatic copyrights, since you're being forced to accept all those terms on expressing an idea with no obvious "opt-out," but that's another discussion entirely.)

It's probably worth giving a try if it passes, though...
