Andy Gallant and Daniel Else STOP!
Criminal acts are not allowed on this discussion list. You are committing speech crimes that violate the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Providing directions for circumvention is a criminal act. If you want to put yourselves in danger of prosecution that is your business, but do it off list. Criminal speech on the list puts the entire list in peril of being shut down. I don't want this to happen. If you continue with criminal speech I will have to protect the list by restricting your ability to post. So please STOP! Dan, I am particularly surprised that someone posting from LOC would so brazenly break the law. Working for one of the primary DMCA arbiters you should know better than the rest of us what the DMCA requires. Michael, if the creator of a PDF file locks it you have to respect that lock. That is the law. Any speech about breaking the lock violates the DMCA. You either respect the lock, find a more open supplier, or apply to the LOC for a waver (I think they accept petitions every 2 years). If you take the long view, not voting for corrupt politicians might help too.
