✦ Synopsis

So, linking to DeCSS is now permitted under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act. The appeal case by 2600 Magazine, against whom an injunction was also placed for linking to the same code, is still underway. That case differs in that it was brought under a different Act, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). The mood at 2600 is described on their website as "cautiously optimistic".
