The RIAA and MPAA have submitted a plan to the Office of Intellectual Property Enforcement. It’s basically a plan that they want the government to enact, and it’s terrifying.

Here are some of the lovely things that they’re calling for:

* spyware on your computer that detects and deletes infringing materials;
* mandatory censorware on all Internet connections to interdict transfers of infringing material;
* border searches of personal media players, laptops and thumb-drives;
* international bullying to force other countries to implement the same policies;
* and free copyright enforcement provided by Fed cops and agencies (including the Department of Homeland Security!).
