In the Matter of Digital Broadcast Copy Protection: The Motion Picture Association of America has made the claim that if over-the-air HDTV signals are unprotected, then it will be trivial to redistribute that content via electronic mail, shared folders, web sites, or P2P file-sharing software. Jack Valenti, MPAA chairman and CEO, has made this claim: “A 12-year-old, with a click of a mouse, can send a movie hurtling to all of the five continents.” Raffi Krikorian, a graduate student at the MIT Media Lab, tested that statement and found it really isn’t true.
