Kaplan of the <BR> Southern District of New York, forces three New York defendants -- <BR> Shawn C. Reimerdes, Eric Corley (also known as Emmanuel Goldstein) and <BR> Roman Kazan -- to immediately remove the DeCSS software utility from <BR> their Web sites or face contempt of court charges. A similar complaint <BR> was also filed against Jeraimee Hughes in the District of Connecticut <BR> that has yet to be decided. <BR> <BR> "Judge Kaplan's ruling represents a great victory for creative <BR> artists, consumers and copyright owners everywhere. I think this <BR> serves as a wake-up call to anyone who contemplates stealing <BR> intellectual property," said Jack Valenti, president and CEO of the <BR> Los Angeles-based Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), in a <BR> statement. <BR> <BR> DeCSS was originally created by Norwegian programmers who <BR> reverse-engineered the DVD Content Scrambling System (CSS) to give <BR> computers running the Linux operating system DVD playback capability. <BR> Detailed analysis of weaknesses in the CSS have been circulating on <BR> the Internet for months. <BR> (Rat附注: 这位挪威程序员好象才15岁! 牛!) <BR> <BR> The MPAA argued that DeCSS violated the "anticircumvention" provisions <BR> of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998. The preliminary <BR> injunctions were contested by the San Francisco-based Electronic <BR> Frontier Foundation (EFF), which maintains that the MPAA is trying to <BR> suppress discussion of DVD insecurity, violating free-speech <BR> protections in the First Amendment. There have been no reported cases <BR> of consumers actually making unauthorized copies of DVDs using the <BR> software. <BR> <BR> The EFF is leading the defense in another DVD case filed in California <BR> Dec. 28 by the DVD Copy Control Association Inc. (CCA), which accused <BR> 72 Web site operators of posting or linking to the DeCSS utility. <BR> <BR> Morgan Hill, Calif.-based CCA initially sought a temporary restraining <BR> order against the Web site operators. After that was denied by a <BR> judge, the organization then sought a preliminary injunction against <BR> the Web site owners. A hearing in the case took place earlier this <BR> week, but the judge hasn't issued a ruling. <BR> <BR> EFF Executive Director Tara Lemmey said the cases aren't about piracy <BR> or hacking but "censorship of speech critical to science, education <BR> and innovation. Reverse-engineering of DVD security is legitimate and <BR> important for systems interoperability." <BR> <BR> "We are disappointed in the judge's ruling. We fought the DMCA because <BR> we were afraid that it was going to gut fair use and it appears that <BR> in the judge's ruling, his interpretation of the law does gut fair <BR> use," said Shari Steele, director of legal services for the EFF. <BR> <BR> Steele noted that the judge was going to hold another hearing on the <BR> merits of the case in the next few weeks and the EFF would continue to <BR> support the defendants. <BR> <BR> "The next dangerous thing that we think could come from this judge is <BR> to make a ruling as to links. The movie industry is clearly going <BR> after folks who link to other sites [with DeCSS] and we think it's <BR> very scary that Web-site owners would be liable for linking to Web <BR> sites that they have no control over." <BR> <BR> Related stories: <BR> <BR> * Civil rights group blasts DVD suit, Jan. 18, 2000 <BR> * Film studios file suit against accused DVD hackers, Jan. 17, 2000 <BR> * Flawed copyright protection puts new spin on DVD, Dec. 13, 1999 <BR> * DVD encryption hacked, Nov. 4, 1999 <BR> <BR>=======End========== <BR>-- <BR>|======================+========================+====================| <BR>| 以无法为有法 , | 拳本无法,有法也空; | 我爱GNU/Linux, | <BR>| 以无限为有限 | 一法不立,无法不容。| 因为我爱自由! | <BR>| | | | <BR>| 截拳道宗师-李小龙 | 意拳宗师-王芗斋 | 土人 Linuxrat | <BR>|======================+========================+====================| <BR> <BR>※ 修改:·linuxrat 於 Jan 22 08:47:40 修改本文·[FROM: 202.112.168.253] <BR>※ 来源:·BBS 水木清华站 smth.org·[FROM: 202.112.168.253] <BR><CENTER><H1>BBS水木清华站∶精华区</H1></CENTER></BODY></HTML>
