First, the entertainment industry wants to stump out piracy on the web, and now, they want to go after those who resell their products or works – such as Amazon, Ebay, Craigslist, and others.
To put it simply, your right to resell products you own is in jeopardy. These people claim that if you sell your used i-Pad to someone for example, they say it’s infringing, and leaves the intellectual owners in the dust, with no intervention in the reselling process.
Seems the intellectual owners want some percentage of the take in resales, or want to leave the reselling of their products and works to themselves.
Sign the petition from Demand Progress if you oppose the intervention of intellectual property owners in reselling what you own.
