No offense, but you always refer to fair use like it doesn't exist. And
then hold the DMCA up like couple of stone tablets. You sound like some
PR/FUD lackey working for the labels. If this is the case then you could
gain a lot in the way of actually respecting/acknowledging well-established
consumer rights instead of bringing up laws that violate them and freedom
of speech along side. The DMCA is no more universal than the "old-school"
US copyright law, and has yet to testify in as many cases. I think I speak
for everyone listening when I say that the DMCA does not take america's
best interests to heart.
