• Judge Tosses Out RIAAs First File-Sharing Conviction, Thomas Granted New Trial!
  US District Judge Michael Davis formally agrees that "making available" theory is flawed, also implores Congress to prevent excessive damage awards like the $222,000 She was ordered to pay for a measly 24 songs. Theres the smell of blood in the water over at RIAA headquarters this morning with word that their legal team suffered a dramatic setback today, one that dramatically raises the standards for proving copyright infringement. In the case of Jammie Thomas, the first person ever to be convicted of illegal file-sharing, US District Judge Michael Davis said he erred in instructing the jury that simply making music available in KaZaAs "shared folder" was the same as copyright infringement, and that his error "substantially prejudiced" her rights. He also implored Congress to reform copyright law to prevent similarly "oppressive" awards in music file-sharing cases. "The Court does not condone Thomas actions, but it would be a farce to say that a single mothers acts of using Kazaa are the equivalent, for example, to the acts of global financial firms illegally infringing on copyrights in order to profit in the securities market," Judge Davis wrote in his opinion.

• European Parliament Rejects Anti-File-Sharing Proposals
  Tosses out "three-strikes-and-your-out" proposal to disconnect users as well as plans to force ISPs to filter copyrighted material from new Telecom package. Today brings another bit of good news for file-sharers with word that the European Parliament has decided to formally reject several anti-piracy proposals included in a recent effort to reform the EU framework on electronic communications (telecom package). The first was the controversial "three-strikes-and-your-out" plan whereby users would face increasing sanctions that would begin with a warning, followed by throttling, and would ultimately lead to a permanent loss of ones Internet connection. Amendment 138 now reads: (ea) In paragraph 4, point (ga) is added: "(ga) applying the principle that no restriction may be imposed on the rights and freedoms of end-users, notably in accordance with Article 11 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union on freedom of expression and information, without a prior ruling by the judicial authorities, except where dictated by force majeure or by the requirements of preserving network integrity and security, and subject to national provisions of criminal law imposed for reasons of public policy, public security or public morality." Internet subscribers now dont have to worry about having their rights and freedoms curtailed via unsubstantiated charges by copyright holders.

• Congress Passes PRO-IP Act, but Bush May Veto
  Concerned about separation of powers and "legislative intrusion into the internal structure and composition of the Presidents Administration." Over the weekend Congress passed the controversial Prioritizing Resources and Organization for Intellectual Property Act, or PRO-IP Act, which was formally known as the Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights Act. If you recall, the legislation had originally contained a provision allowing the Dept of Justice to sue file-sharers in civil as well as criminal court. It was a job the DoJ did not want. "We strongly oppose Title I of the bill, which not only authorizes the Attorney General to pursue civil remedies for copyright infringement, but to secure restitution damages and remit them to the private owners of infringed copyrights,"wrote the DoJ to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
