All it needs is the President’s signature, and the Family Entertainment and Copyright Act will become law.

Amazing. Under this law, anyone who places a “copy of a film, software program or music file in a shared folder and should have known the copyrighted work had not been commercially released” would be a federal felon, and would face up to three years in prison and fines of up to $250,000. No one even needs to download said file.
