David Touretzky led a massive effort by hackers and other Internet
anarchists to republish the code intended to prevent copying of the
contents of DVDs.

That's the best those retards can come up with?

You *do* know that copying DVD's is *fair use* and that their
"protection" is an impediment to that, right?

And what do you have against "hackers"? Do you really have to be *that
jealous* of people who have more computer skills than yourself?

And I thought Scientology teaches you *not* to have such kneejerk reactions.

Since you fancy yourself a lawyer, kindly *cite* the exact U.S. Code
statute that forbids "hacking" and makes it a felony crime.

Reverse engineering of copyright protection access control systems
for purposes of software interoperability is explicitly allowed for
under DMCA.

http://digital-law-online.info/lpdi1.0/treatise48.html

This is exactly what the DeCSS code was written for, because the DvD
ROM reader vendors were not providing code for the Linux platform
due to there support for the Microsoft monopoly.

The U.S. Copyright statutes:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/ht...7----000-.html

specifically allow backup copies of programs to be made and kept, and
these often have copyright protection measures that have to be
circumvented in order to obtain the lawful backup copy.

Before you go making libelous criminal allegations against Dr.
Touretsky, maybe you should do your ****ing legal homework
first you malicious malcontent moron.

First of all, I'm not a lawyer. My information is only based on
publical sources research into this subject.

The United States Code section on Copyrights allows "Fair Use".

That's the law.

Copies of audio and video tapes for personal use were ruled
to fall under Fair Use by the Copyright Office decades ago.

CD's and DvD's are not functionally different from tapes,
but the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)
and Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) have long
been campaigning to get the Copyright Office to declare
personal use copies of these infringements of their copyrights.

RIAA and MPAA are your "they" here, whom have so far failed
and have instead resorted to trying to buy a new law changing
the Copyright Act to forbid personal use copying. Each attempt
made so far has been by the slimey tactic of getting this provision
added to a totally unrelated bill and hoping nobody would notice
before it got passed into law.

So far "they" have failed, AFAIK.

I strongly urge everyone to monitor the Electronic Frontier Foundation
(EFF) website (http://www.eff.org) , wherein Action Alerts on this
issues are posted from time to time, along with extensive
plain-english explanations of the laws being applied to online
communications.

EFF majorly defends Freedom of Speech on the Internet and
greatly deserves your support.

DMCA is also the law.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMCA

The whole point is that David is obviously not violating the DMCA or
else CMU would have been forced to remove the various forms of DeCSS
that appear on his web pages.

I can't speak for Dave, but I would guess that he feels the DMCA might
not be Constitutional. I know I believe it is.

It is the equivelent of making it illegal for me to tell somehow how to
remove (or unlock) a lock that is on a door to their own house. I
believe that our constitution allows me to always provide information
that explains a process like this. If people use information to do
illegal things, then you should punish those people. You don't try to
punish the people that provide the information itself. Information can
be used for both good and bad.

And supporting hackers is something that Google and Microsoft also
engage in regularly. Hacking itself isn't bad either. Hacker doesn't
mean "bad person".

Some hackers are bad and some are good.
