The US Senate judiciary committee is trying to pass legislation that would grant the government sweeping anti-piracy powers. The legislation would grant the attorney general the right to force service providers to take action against pirating websites. While the movie and music industries heavily favor the bill, many ISP executives don’t see it passing anytime soon.
