all the people of the village violate DMCA

By decrypting DVD's without using code that was approved by a member of the MPAA (whether you use DeCSS or some other "thing"), you are violating the DMCA.


The DMCA is unpopular. <A HREF="http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20020428">It's almost as if the Village People were singing about breaking the DMCA</a userfriendly.org>. Unpopular laws violate the USA legal principle of popular sovereignty, that is, government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Once Americans learn the true import of the DMCA and S.2048, they will revolt.


Those in the know just need to get the word out.
