IPac (Intellectual Property Action I assume) is a new American organisation “defending the public interest where culture and technology meet.” They lobby senators and others on the damaging affects of copyright. They base their ideas around 3 principles:

Creators of ideas and inventions have the right to be compensated for their work, but not to limit political expression, veto technological innovation, or restrict education and scientific research.

Intellectual property laws should be judged by their potential to foster new creativity, as required by the U.S. Constitution.

Intellectual property laws should be clear and explicit, so anybody can create without fear of lawsuits.

Sounds like the right kind of attitude. We need more of this around the world. It’s good to see organisations like this seem to be springing up more frequently now, hopefully giving the whole suite of issues a much broader platform and getting the point to the general public.
