Here's a CNN story.

http://www.cnn.com/2000/TECH/computing/08/23/decss.part2.idg/index.html

Scroll to the bottom.

There's a pointer to a site where you can download the DeCSS software.

Now, follow this trail..

CNN is a Time-Warner company.

As is Warner Brothers Pictures.

Warner Brothers Pictures is a member of the MPAA.

Which won a case on 8/17/00, where this act was the matter in question.

Conclusion: What a joke the US Constitution has become.
