Introducing RECAP: Turning PACER Around

gavinbaker's bookmarks 2012-10-07

Summary:

"Today, we are excited to announce the public beta release of RECAP ... RECAP is a plug-in for the Firefox web browser that makes it easier for users to share documents they have purchased from PACER, the court's pay-to-play access system. With the plug-in installed, users still have to pay each time they use PACER, but whenever they do retrieve a PACER document, RECAP automatically and effortlessly donates a copy of that document to a public repository hosted at the Internet Archive."
