Description
I. INTRODUCTION On November 4, 2003 the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") formally adopted the "broadcast flag" as the primary anti-piracy tool for digital television transmissions. (1) This regulatory measure is intended to facilitate a consumer transition from analog to digital-signal television transmissions by ensuring high quality content, thereby encouraging consumer investment in digital technologies. (2) The FCC's goal is to complete the transition to digital broadcasts by 2007. (3) The flag is a technological measure designed "to prevent mass distribution [of digital television broadcasts] over the Internet." (4) Presumably driven by fears of a repeat performance of Internet music piracy in the television industry, the FCC seeks to protect content owners before sharing becomes too widespread.
