Fritz's Hit List #12

Today on Fritz’s Hit List: the Big Red Shearling Bone.

This dog toy lets you record a short message to your pet, to be replayed later when you aren’t around. Because the messages are apparently stored in digital form, this device qualifies for regulation as a “digital media device” under the Hollings CBDTPA. If the CBDTPA passes, any newly manufactured talking dog toys will have to incorporate government-approved copy restriction technology.

Fight piracy – regulate dog toys!
