Hi:  Here's a real-life example of the future under DMCA and SSSCA:
This is an exerpt from a bid proposal for North Carolina, not atypical of
many such bids being promulgated through State and Federal governmental
agencies.  This bid proposal can be seen in its entirety at:
http://www.ips.state.nc.us/ips/AGENCY/PDF/01943100.pdf

The present NT Server will be replaced by "certified" and "approved" server,
most likely.  The support of importing DICOM files will require additional
equipment and "approved" and "certified" security measures.  The web server
will most likely be replaced by - - -
Well, I think you can see just how disruptive and destructive the DMCAS [the
S is for shit] and SSSCA legislation will be.  Not to mention the number of
governmental agencies that are about to become outright criminals!  Read and
enjoy:
