In the long term non-inforcement of unti-trust law is a problem.
Look at what's happening  arround: M$ is still not broken up (and
reason -- Billy bought Senate). All of big companies (M$, IBM, etc.)
are just buing out small ones, thus destroing small business layer
of computer programming market. Further competitive technologies are
being destroyed by buing and shutting them down. For example look at
what happened to Alpha processors: Intell owns them now!!! What do you
think is going to happen? When Compaq bought SEC, they shut down 2(?)
of 4(?) (my memory is failing me, so numbers might be wrong) Alpha factories.

We can (and should) focus all energy we can on DMCA, but we
should remember, that as long as corporations (and not only Software
ones) continue to grow, and arbitarily merge, they will be buying things
like DMCA whenever they want to.
