  And ownership interesting the terms of this proposed legislation is
a traditional as it applies online or via the Internet/web.  That interest may
be a privately held company or a publically held one.  Indeed it may even
be a non-profit corp./entity.

  Your last question just answered you previous two here in part.

 The legislation if you read the excerpt that I posted closely, directly
