Does anyone know of cases or appeals involving violations of 17 USC 1201 copy protection circumvention. The law is relatively new, and the grace period for circumvention actions has only recently expired.
My current interest are the MPAA DVD/DeCSS case(s).
I'm aware of cases involving Sony v. Connectix, and RealNetworks v. MP3.com (I think). The RealNetworks action appears to have been dropped. What's the status of the Connectix case? Last action I'd heard of was for a Sept 14, 1999 court date.
There's also the Sony v. Bleem case.
Nintendo has pursued actions of similar nature.
Anything else?
TIA.
