I think our route to overturning the DMCA has to start with the
people, not the Congress. They will never repeal it without pressure
coming from Americans who support free speech and fair use, and oppose
corporate control of our society.

So, I don't think this is a big problem, really. Besides, USENIX is
too big an opportunity to pass up on.
