Notice how they tack on the “AND Responsibilities” to the straightforward concept of a bill of rights. How much you want to bet that at some point the responsibilities include “verifying your (ISP) customers have rights to the content they are distributing”? At any rate, I suppose it’s a good thing that networks and ISPs work together, I just don’t know why “content owners” have to be part of this.

Comcast Corp., under federal investigation for interfering with the traffic of its Internet subscribers, said Tuesday it wants to develop a “Bill of Rights and Responsibilities” for file sharing.
