Cryptome got a demand letter yesterday from the MPAA Anti-Piracy
Unit to remove DeCSS as well as to immediately perform other
unnatural acts:

A number of responses to the letter have come in which
might be of interest here:

One item we've added to the package is a message from the
Copy Protection Technical Working Group, an MPAA related
org, which lists dozens of subscribers to its mail list, including
familiar cryptographers, attorneys and other faithful servants
from the world's most cartel-ic .coms, .edus and .orgs.
