Anyone looking for a crash course about the intent of this type of legislation and how fundamentally flawed they are should either read :

Lockdown - the coming war on general purpose computing

or watch the keynote speech video.

Cory Doctorrow's keynote speech at 28c3

Seriously - take the time to read or watch this and get a better understanding of what we are getting into with these laws.

Fighting piracy is a good goal. The way we are going about it through current and proposed laws is deeply flawed and cannot work. We have to find other ways.
