Cory is in a triumphalist mood at Boing-Boing regarding the DC Circuit of the US Court of Appeals striking down the Broadacst Flag that the intrusive and Orwellian FCC wants real bad:

The next move here is that the studios will take this to Congress and try to get a law passed to make this happen. No chance. They got ZERO laws passed last year. This year the best they've been able to accomplish is making it slightly more illegal to videotape movies in the theatre.

The fact is, elected lawmakers are not suicidal enough to break their constituents' televisions. Watch and see: over the next year, we're all going to roast any lawmaker who so much as breathes the words "Broadcast Flag" in a favorable tone.

He's right, I hope. But who knows what odd coalition of broadcast industry and religious mind control types might cook up. We'd better keep our eyes on them.
