26.Jul.2010 Give Us Free, Apple

Jailbreaking an iPhone is no longer a copyright infringement: you can do what you want with the software and hardware you bought and Steve Jobs can’t do anything to force his strange idea of freedom on you by banning gay comic books. Next order of business: buy more gay comic books.

HuffoPo reports:

The decision to allow the practice commonly known as “jailbreaking” is one of a handful of new exemptions from a 1998 federal law that prohibits people from bypassing technical measures that companies put on their products to prevent unauthorized use of copyright-protected material. The Library of Congress, which oversees the Copyright Office, reviews and authorizes exemptions every three years to ensure that the law does not prevent certain non-infringing uses of copyright-protected works.
