The United States Copyright Office has reportedly heard requests of the public to discuss any possible loopholes on its rules. At the UCLA Law School this Wednesday, Federal regulators have considered testimonies whether to legalize DVD-encryption cracking or not. The public hearing was attended by federal officials, representatives from motion picture studios and about 2 dozen members of the public. The public, including filmmakers, have petitioned the U.S. Copyright Office for the permission to continue using DVD decryption tools to copy short clips of DVDs from motion pictures.
Ubergizmo, DVD-encryption cracking to be allowed by the Feds?
