Refalm,
I was very aware of those sites. They're great resources and they've got the right idea... but it's going to take sit-ins, public disobediance, marches and rallies measuring in hundreds of thousands of people to get real attention.
Tattooed, yes, this is a real law. It was passed in 1998 and it can, in fact, affect you over in Britain! They arrested a Russian man, Dmitry Skylarov upon entering the United States.
The DMCA and its ilk are going to be the ruin of the world!!!!!
Refalm:
Plus that the WTO will probably inforce the law on non-U.S. countries.
Some anarchists and socialists have protested against it last year in Seattle, but... which avarge American cares about that?

Hi!
So why have I only heard about the DMCA law now?? It's sad to say-but most people don't give two s**ts about DMCA. So if I added a mod chip to the xbox that would make me a criminal :confused: I agree that these laws will ruin the world.
