Dmitry Sklyarov in the news

According to cnet, Dmitry Sklyarov deposition that was videotaped was play at the ElcomSoft trial. He did think that was fair. He rather have ben called to the stand. On Tuesday, a jury acquitted ElcomSoft of all counts against it in the first case to test the criminal provisions of the DMCA, a U.S. law aimed at updating intellectual property rules for the computer age. Although jurors agreed the product was illegal because it was designed to crack antipiracy technology controls, they declined to convict because they didn't believe ElcomSoft intended to break the law. Dmitry said if someone came to him with another project focused on cracking copyright protections, "I would ask you, if you're sure this is legal." If the answer is unclear, Sklyarov said he would suggest the person find a lawyer who could figure it out. Article on the story here
