Only pre-release is covered. Post-release is not attacked in this bill:
|
| ... the copies or phonorecords of the work have not been commercially publicly performed in the United States by or with the authorization of the copyright owner; or
| (B) a motion picture, if, at the time of unauthorized public performance, the motion picture
| (i)
| (I) has been made available for viewing in a motion picture exhibition facility; and
| (II) has not been made available in copies for sale to the general public in the United States by or with the authorization of the copyright owner in a format intended to permit viewing outside a motion picture exhibition facility;
- thinkingemote 6y agoThat is from the definitions part of the document, which defines what "work being prepared for commercial public performance" means. EDITS - on page 2543 https://rules.house.gov/sites/democrats.rules.house.gov/files/BILLS-116HR133SA-RCP-116-68.pdf https://rules.house.gov/sites/democrats.rules.house.gov/file... 3 years for released works. 5 years for unreleased stuff. So it's not just for pre-release. Pre-release just gives you an additional 2 years in prison!
