Urgent Attention Needed!

Anyone who values the right to their own respective works should take notice of what the U.S Congress is trying to pass as law.

Read this article, then do the research: Animation World Magazine

Other links that may help:

Orphan works - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

U.S. Copyright Office - Orphan Works

As the saying goes, "Knowledge is Power".

I agree. Government has made me frustrated/angry for quite a while now.

All in all, I can't really say I'm surprised. Property rights here have been iffy here in America for a while. In my opinion, it was only a matter of time before they pulled (or attempted to pull) a stunt like this.
