This is a great article with some very informative legal insights - it's given me a handle on where to look in the USC/USCA to find out more about the DMCA. Thanks to Engadget and the team at Columbia!
However, it could be more tightly edited. The sentences: "Legal defeat, however, has not at all magically eliminated the availability of DeCSS on the web. This may give some insight as to how effective current legal relief in the US will be once internet users take hold of a desirable new technology" (para. 5) appear almost verbatim in the 13th paragraph.
