Court Hears Challenge to DTV Content Protection Rule
A Federal court today hears a challenge to the "broadcast flag" rules designed to deter widespread copying of digital TV broadcasts. The rules require that after July 2005 all devices handling broadcast digital programs must obey certain content protection standards. The lawsuit by a range of public interest groups argues the FCC did not have the authority to create such broad rules, which impact computers and the Internet as well as TVs.
