„For my non-nordic readers (ooh it sounds so pompous), Jon Lech Johansen aka DVD-Jon or Jon "So Sue Me " Lech Johansen, was charged for designing a program (DeCSS) that cracked the "Content Scrambling System" on DVD films. Johansen's program allows for DVDs to be played on "unlicensed” DVD- players/equipment. The actual charge, without going into legalese (cos I can’t!) is that he “broke” the code to the scrambling device without being “entitled” to.“

„He was getting annoyed at me, and kept offering to let me past, but I could barely keep up on the uphills so I didn't want to go ahead if I was going to be slowing him down on the uphills. After a while, I finally took pity on him (and he seemed to be flagging a bit), so I did pass him and put on a burst of effort to get far enough ahead that I wasn't slowing him down on the uphills.“http://xcski.com/blogs/pt/cat_reminiscence.html - Cached - Similar Pages

„Oops: Those of you who have been following the trials of DeCSS over the past several weeks know that the MPAA and the major Hollywood studios have done everything in their power to keep the DVD crack -- which disables copy-control encryption on DVDs -- out of the hands of everybody. But that didn't stop the MPAA's lawyers from including the entire DeCSS source code in court papers relating to a pending California lawsuit, which were public documents up until last week, when they were placed under seal by Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge William Elfving at the MPAA's request. Until that point, the code was available to the general public for two weeks, courtesy of the very people who would like to bury it.“http://www.dvdjournal.com/previousnews/ news200001.html - Cached - Similar Pages
„Felten's analysis is really useful, and reminds that technically, the BF is full of holes and will more likely frustrate users trying to watch shows tagged with the BF, as they attempt to use media in ways we do now with VCRs. It won't, most likely, keep shows off the internet. If the Pew reports are correct, as well as Consumer's Union predictions, we are 20 years away from having a large section of the US population that will have enough home use of broadband to be able to download such large files (2 - 4 gb verses a music mp3 which is typically 2-5k).“http://napsterization.org/stories/archives/ cat_aural_music.html#000133 - Cached - Similar Pages

„However, as pointed out by Johansen, the DMCA went further than was required by WIPO- a clause in the law prohibits the production and distribution of program/tools that “unlocks” technical barriers, whether the intention is illegal or not.“http://huminf.uib.no/~st04555/jot/archive/ 2003_02.html#000078 - Cached - Similar Pages
