At the CCC Camp there was a lot of chatter about it, mostly waiting for a prosecution attempt with the law since it's not been tested yet. All felt it was very chilling but nothing that wasn't expected from a knee-jerk reactionary group of lawmakers who don't understand technology.

That helped a lot. :) http://events.ccc.de/camp/2007/Hax0rcise%21 http://www.flickr.com/photos/mlcastle/1091091307/in/set-72157601319930122/ If you take your stuff to Germany, store it on an encrypted drive just to be safe (paranoid). The law isn't really that clear AFAIK so enforcement could be a real big problem.
