Great news--

"Secondary Producers"

ARE OFF THE HOOK!!!


for the time being......

Trouble is looming, though, because I have heard rumblings that some do-gooders are working in Congress to change the statute to include secondary producers. This ruling will only encourage them. The biggest FSC argument was that only Congress could re-define producers to include webmasters, not the Attorney General. So, we could win the court case but then have Congress change the statute and be fucked all over again.

HOWEVER<

The Straight Forward Legal-Trained Answer to your Question is:

YES! Secondary Producers are relieved of the record keeping burden!



Hell, I forgot to charge ya'll. I may lose my law license if I keep giving straight answers for no money.
