I am currently torn between two directions that both sound intelligent:

a) ease up on adobe, or they might turn around again. they did
withdraw, so they should get a cookie for being good boys

to every OTHER corp that is contemplating (ab)use of the DMCA - "no,
you will NOT get away with a single black eye"
