The MPAA Case
A Friendly Letter Of Cease-And-Desist
You’ve got Mail! Today, it’s from the MPAA, the Motion Picture Association of America. And this is what they write. You probably realize, that not exactly I did get this mail, but my internet service provider, which happens to be my employer.
Apparently the MPAA is trying to intimidate people around the world and their ISPs with a law (DMCA) which does only exist in the United States of America. Thank you MPAA, I hope you realize that I now consider you a bunch of assholes, miscreants, nogoods and persons of low moral fiber?
Apparently, my essay on Copyprotection had a link to a local copy of DeCSS in it, which they found.
Well anyway, I sent them this answer.
