I bring this up because the USA are pretty extremist on IP laws favouring super rich publishers. As mentioned in my previous thread, the Productivity Commission (AU) draft report into IP has suggested dropping software patents altogether and reducing the term of copyright to just 15-25 years in total (as opposed to, well, the perpetual copyrights of today which are defined as "life of author + 70 years" with many corporate publishers asserting authorship over copyrighted works to make the term of copyright last forever).
The number above is a prime number, and is used to decrypt CSS. Note that the same draft Productivity Commission report mentioned states clearly that any copyright infringement that does not directly harm the owner should not be an infringement. In otherwords, we should indeed pave the way for people to be able to decrypt their own movies however they want, so long as their enjoyment isn't directly harmful to the copyright owner. That would seem downright sensible.
To quote:
Quote:Australia's copyright system has progressively expanded and protects works longer than necessary to encourage creative endeavour, with consumers bearing the cost.
It'll be an uphill battle to bring about change, but it'll be great when we do. Hopefully if we and other commonwealth countries like Canada start showing some real initiative on IP then other countries will follow the example - instead of following the USA into banning public libraries and deliberately extending existing copyrights so they don't enter public domain (under the guise of "restoring copyrights").

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK
"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
