[free-sklyarov] Please no flames for what i'm about to propose...

[Roger Kramer]

I'm just trying to keep options open...

Yesterday someone correctly, I think, observed that there are 2nd amendment 
issues here, too. Would anyone deny software can be used as a weapon?

I am not a lawyer, but...
The full text of the law makes various well-intentioned exceptions to the 
Anti Circumvention Provision for research, etc. etc. One interesting 
exception in Section 1201 (e) essentially exempts the U.S. government and 
anyone acting "officially" on its behalf. ...making the U.S. gov the only 
party who in all cases is allowed to bear these particular arms.

Might the NRA, yes Europe, I said National Rifle Assoc, be interested in 
this? Are there any card carrying members out there that want to comment? 
They have deep pockets and most of the Republican party.
