[free-sklyarov] A reply from amyg@publishers.org

[David Haworth]

Hi All,

I got a reply from Pat Schroeder's personal reply-bot.
I think we've seen this one before.
Clearly they didn't bother to read the message.  :-(
I'll cc my reply to this one here too.

Dear Mr. Haworth:

AAP stands by its press release of July 22 supporting the anticircumvention
provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and commending the
Department of Justice for acting on its responsibility to enforce the DMCA
in the matter of Dmitry Sklyarov. 

In response to those who attempt to justify circumventing, or trafficking in
devices that circumvent, encryption and other technological measures that
protect copyright in the digital environment,  AAP urges them to carefully
consider how their arguments would apply to precisely the same activities in
connection with encryption and other technological measures used to protect
privacy in that same environment. 

Amy Gwiazdowski
