Here's an
article in The Economist about the ElcomSoft trial. "So far, the
federal judge conducting the trial has dismissed ElcomSoft's constitutional
arguments as irrelevant to the criminal case. But these are likely to
become the key issues if the case, or another DMCA test case like it, goes
all the way to the Supreme Court."

"The closely-watched trial is the first criminal prosecution brought under the DMCA, a law loathed by Internet enthusiasts."
Yep. Pretty much says it all.
The Economist is a very influential publication. This article is a very good thing for those of us who oppose the DMCA.
