The new Communications Paradigm

Congressman Rich Boucher, representative from the 9th Congressional district of Virgina, is holding an open discussion on Lessig to discuss the INDUCE act.

Lessig is the blog for Lawrence Lessig, a law professor at Stanford University. This week his blog is being hosted by Congressman Boucher, who is a hero to many for his opposition to the DMCA and authorship of the Digital Media Consumer Rights Act - lessig.

This is seriously cool stuff. A representative of our government is actually reaching out intellectually and challenging we the people to tell him why the INDUCE act is bad legislation. And the discussion is intellectual, impassioned, and most of all, cordial. Hopefully this will be a portent of things to come.

Oh yeah, the best part....Congressman Boucher referenced one of my posts in the discussion!
