Copyright War: IP Control Freaks Lose Another 2 Rounds
A Norwegian court has acquitted a teenager accused by US entertainment groups of creating tools for hackers. Jon Johansen has walked away from all charges that he broke the law when he created DeCSS to remove copy protection on DVDs so that he could play them on his PC.

The Court has upheld the consumer's right to access the information they buy on whatever device they choose.

Meanwhile in Europe its what is NOT happening that matters. Deadline Passes for European Digital Copyright Law.
