This is regarding the battle over the Digital Millenium Copyright Act, or
DMCA, a law bought by US businesses like Microsoft, Adobe, MPAA, DVD-CCA,
SDMI and RIAA that gives them unconstitutional powers over law enforcement,
fair use, and copyright rights.  I am not quite sure how to articulate this,
so others please step in and clarify my lack of detail.

case)
