Senator Thom Tillis is hot on the trail of the Internet Archive’s “National Emergency Library” scam that we have been writing about for weeks. We go a little farther in Senator Tillis’s direction by identifying the Internet Archive’s scheme as taking advantage of a declared national disaster to get away with behavior outside the law to the detriment of others. All this legislation could be used to address the Internet Archive’s bad behavior.

The Internet has devalued content to the point where it is often offered at no charge—newspapers, for instance—or widely misappropriated, as with music and movies. Underlying both is the belief that content on the Internet should be free (a notion reinforced by the other four factors). The answer lies in the origin of the Internet. The DoD, of course, seldom fosters self-gratification, a trait that underlies the “free content” culture of the Internet.
