This is starting to sound like that blog I read. Apparently America was 
planning to enact a law that makes it illegal to "facilitate copyright 
infringement". In other words, illegal to make things that can be used 
to copy stuff. The blog suggested that this would cause many things to 
become illegal - P2P software, backup software, CD-burners, cameras, the 
Internet, harddrives, computers, photocopiers, VCRs, set-top boxes, 
PDAs, mobile phones, carbon paper, pens, pencils, paper, slate, sharp 
sticks, rocks, ferbis, parrots, humans...

I have no idea if this act ever become law. ;-)
