A) Provide at least 2 of your own arguments for the extradition of Kim Dotcom to the US for copyright violations. Provide at least 2 of your own arguments in Dotcom’s defense. Provide at least 2 well thought out questions that you would like to ask each side (the MPAA/RIAA and Dotcom) before coming to a definitive conclusion. You must be able to defend points that do not correspond to your beliefs for this question. Suggested reading/viewing here.

B) Analyze the following statements. Are they equally valid (or invalid)? Is the security analogy between the two valid?

1. One effect of the DMCA’s anti-circumvention provision is to reduce incentive for the entertainment/publishing industries to develop truly strong protection schemes. The DMCA allows them to use weak schemes, then threatens legal action against anyone who cracks them.

2. One effect of laws against burglary is to reduce incentives for homeowners to use sturdy locks. The law allows people to use weak locks, then threatens legal action against anyone who breaks in.
