'Super-DMCA' in Oregon 2003-04-15
Fantom Code (3 replies)
Ok guys and gals,

I was just reading the Bill for Oregon. It says that an 'Access device' means anything that is intended to be used to facilitate the interception, transmission, retransmission, acquisition, decryption or receipt of a communication service. That gives me the impression that owning a device as simple as a RF scanner is a crime. This is big news to me. I might not understand this law to the Letter. Can someone explain this nonsense? Thanks.
