I believe that Playfool should be unbanned, and allowed to once again post on Gentoo Off The Wall.
Signed,

We understand, but that doesn't take away our right to bitch about it, which I'll happily continue doing.
Unless, of course, there's a rule against that as well.
I do understand the concern, though. It was horrible how Digg got shut down over this whole mess.

Either you're misinformed, or my sarcasm meter just went nuclear...

Yes. Winnie the Poo shouldn't be banned just for having different views, only if he promised that he will not post keys again. Unless we can have the American rules changed? In fact, it would be best if the entire forum is moved to Europe or somewhere without DMCA.

For those of us that questioned:
| Quote: | Libdvdcss has never been fought over in a courtroom, in part because Section 1201(f) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act authorizes such circumvention for purposes of software interoperability.
In many countries it is forbidden to sell or document programs that provide ways around copy prevention systems. CSS is not a copy prevention system, but rather primarily a region-control market segmentation system. |

Well, unlike the United States Congress, we can't go around violating US Federal Law solely by majority vote.

Wait...
Unbanning Playfool is a violation of the US Federal Law now?

No, it's not that difficult:
Europe: Sane laws.
Not Europe: Insane laws
