DVD CCA Drops Case; DeCSS Not a Trade Secret

Posted by jamie on from the put-a-t-shirt-on dept.

jon787 writes "EFF is reporting that the DVD CCA is dismissing its case against Andrew Bunner. He was being prosecuted under California's trade secret laws for redistributing DeCSS. This means that the DVD CCA has finally conceded that CSS is no longer a secret, something the rest of us have known for a few years now."
