RIAA Fails to Attach Piracy Language to Anti-Terrorism Bills
The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) attempted but failed to insert anti-piracy language into the terrorism bills.

Specifically, the language would have allowed content owners to engage in malicious hacking in order to prevent violations of copyright law.Music Firms Fail to Get Anti-Piracy Proposal on Bill, Los Angeles Times, October 15, 2001.
