New Copyright law implications for DVD on Linux?

[James]

41.12 (1) Paragraph 41.1(1)(a) does not ap-
ply to a person who owns a computer program
or a copy of one, or has a licence to use the pro-
gram or copy, and who circumvents a techno-
logical protection measure that protects that
program or copy for the sole purpose of obtain-
ing information that would allow the person to
make the program and any other computer pro-
gram interoperable.

That might be applicable to libcss2
