I’m a bit confused now…shouldn’t this new “Personal Technology Freedom Coalition” be connected to the Digital Living Network Alliance, also to be announced tommorow…

Members of the nascent coalition are lending their support to a proposal by Rep. Rick Boucher, D-Va., to rewrite part of the DMCA. Boucher’s bill says that descrambling utilities can be distributed, and copy protection can be circumvented as long as no copyright infringement is taking place.
