Got a forwarded announcement for a new PAC (Political Action Committee) with the self-proclaimed mission of "...promoting the public interest and technical innovation through balanced intellectual property policy."
Stated goals include:
- Fund the campaigns of elected officials who support IPac's principles
- Publish voter guides to help citizens make informed choices about their elected officials based on their handling of IP and technology issues
- Fund issue-based advertising
- Encourage legislation that aligns with IPac's principles
Not entirely clear where they're getting their funding.
