"DVD-Jon" faces retrial
Norway's special division for white-collar crimes, Økokrim, has decided to appeal the acquittal of 19-year-old Jon Lech Johansen, accused of copyright violation for helping bypass DVD code protection, web site Nettavisen reports.
Johansen was acquitted on all counts of piracy and distribution of the code-breaking program. Johansen has argued that his programming work was designed to play DVDs, which he purchased, on a computer with the Linux operating system, something the copy protection would not allow.
The head of Økokrim's computer crimes division said that the reasons for the appeal would be in their offices Monday afternoon.
Johansen's counsel, Halvor Manshaus, said he was not surprised by Økokrim's decision.
"There were signals from Økokrim quite early, that they would appeal and that they see this case as dealign with an important principle. We believe that the first verdict was extremely thorough, but that doesn't prevent them from appealing," Manshaus told Nettavisen.

I know that many of your exploits were due to social engineering as well as exploiting known holes in hardware/software. You write heavily about s.e. in your book as well.
Do you think that social engineering still plays as big a part now as it did in your heyday? Moreso maybe?
I don't consider myself a moron, i have some experience on sco-unix, and lots on novell. Plus I would like think I know just about everything bout microsoft products, but please read above, i have plenty experience on non-ms products. While not a knee-jerk ms basher, I do think that many unix and/or novell products do indeed perform better than the comparable ms product. Disclaimer (above) aside...
The dumb question of the day is: how and why does such a thing affect my life, as both a network engineer as and an IT manager who has to worry about the bottom line? Trying not to be flamebait, I dont care if i get modded as such, but I do not understand the 'function' of all of this. I would appreciate if someone would break this down for me in simpleton terms (gnu for dummies in a nice yellow book cover) Once again, not trying to be a troll, just trying to improve my knowledge...
If someone (attempts to) breaks into your home (in the USA), you are allowed to shoot that person in self defense.
You most certainly not allowed to do this. Only if your life is directoy in danger (ie they have a gun pointed at you, or a knife and are coming at you with it etc...). Otherwise you will be guilty of manslaughter / 2nd or 3rd degree murder.... IANAL of course, but I have heard of this happening to people. (I think tresspassers should be shot, but my opinion is certainly illegal)
B is all you should need to write a good app. C++ with that newfangled OOP, but that was too hard so now they have this 'D'... whatever happened to pascal anyways?
Why back in my day, I would write b++ code on my 25lb laptop while trudging through the snow on my way to the coal mine (uphill both ways). And I thought I had it easy! My dad used to 'program' with oscilloscopes and huge racks of patch cables (actually thats true) when punch cards came out he thought that was the best method that would be for a while...
All you young curmudgeons with your D this and visual that and open source hullabaloo. Twenty three skidoo to all of you!
More interesting people would blog. I would probably read the blogs of Linus Torvalds or Stephen Hawking or George Dubya or AlGore, famous important people and such.
I have no interest in what Pete Johnson from Mahwah NJ thought of while on the city bus on his way to the free clinic (sorry pete, but I really dont).
However I think the people that I would want to read the blogs of probably are too busy with something else to be blogging. Maybe theres a connection there. Maybe bloggers have the time to blog because their life is boring to start with anyways. Thats not just a troll/flamebait, I dont blog but I might as well with all the comments I have posted here on/.

like if the earth suddenly teleported to twice the distance away from the sun that it is now, the change in the effect of gravity would happen right away, rather than at the speed of light. I think magnetism is the same way. If nothing can go faster than the speed of light... still might there be a way to communicate faster than the speed of light using gravitational or magnetic fluctuations? Is there anything else that would effect instantly?
Someone up the block threw out a perfectly good, actually quite expensive skateboard. My friend told me about it so I went up to swipe it. By the time I got there the garbage truck was there. He wouldn't let me swipe it. I explained it was trash going to the landfill, he still said it was quite illegal. Couple minutes of protest got me nowhere. I would have used some whup-ass but I was only 14 or so at the time and this was a big fat smelly teamster looking guy...
But to this day I still have no idea why such a thing would be illegal. I think we need to pay the legislators less, they seem to have too much time on their hands...
so far. and that you got modded up for your comment is absolutely scary.

see now your post is actually insightful with facts to back up your positions. Unlike the origial post that pissed me off. I agree bush isn't squeaky clean, I think he is warmongering more than necessary.
I am a citizen of the United States of America. I make my own decisions, no matter what group of people seem to agree with me at the moment
good. you cant say the same of the original poster. I dont know how such an offtopic comment got modded insightful.
being on your own side is well and good, however we are at war. a war where the first shots were not fired by us but by them. a war where the enemy has chosen the terms, that there are no civilians, only combatants.
you only have the priviledge of being on your own side thanks to 'our' side. Cause if the other side should win this war, you will no longer have that right.

So america has such a bad goverment. Okay. Where would you rather live? Where else would others die to defend your right to say such bull$hit? If you think america has such a bad system then go try iraq.

Fine if you have a good point that you wish to explain, but this is crap:
At least he wasn't busted under Bush's watch, else he would have been labeled an enemy combatent and been held indefinitely with no access to council let alone having charges bought or opportunity to fight them in a court of law.
The only time this has happened is to the prisoners at gitmo. Guess what? Due process for American law only applies to American citizens. Give me one example where this has happened to an american citizen under Bush?
And this baseless canned liberal response gets modded +5??? 'Hmm, something something, Bush==Hitler'. And this is insightful?

Go ahead and try this method. You will soon be sued out of existance. And rightfully so, imho.
You most certainly not allowed to do this. Only if your life is directoy in danger (ie they have a gun pointed at you, or a knife and are coming at you with it etc...).
