So far I have seen no mention of Article QQ.G.10, on TPM.
"The US wants this separate cause of action to extend even to cases where there is no copyrighted works" [1]
Even the DMCA only protects copyrighted works. The provisions of QQ.G.10 for example would make it illegal in enough countries to distribute dvdcss that linux would not play my DVDs.
Once implemented, this will have a significant impact on linux users.
