Publicizing the Sony Case and the DMCA

["Robert P. Holley" <aa3805@xxxxxxxxx>]

I found an interesting discussion on the ZDNet site on whether 
talking about using a felt marker to eliminate copy protection on 
the new Sony ersatz CD's violates the DMCA. Thus, all sites, 
including this one, that told others how to bypass the copyright 
protection on the Sony disks are in technical violation of the law 
and could be prosecuted.

An interesting thought and probably legally correct.
