Lee here takes yet another pro-industry position, this time in
favor of the bureaucratic "copyright management information".

When I asked Lee to state his position on retroactive copyright
duration extension -- which the industry favors in contradiction
of constitutional and economic logic -- Lee would not state his
position.  He thereby kept his record perfect in avoiding any
position that might conflict with industry (i.e., where the
money is to fund lobbyists and consultants).

If I'm mistaken, Lee, then please provide any copyright position
that you hold which is contrary to the industry position.
