>>The DMCA prohibits gaining unauthorized access to a work by circumventing a
technological protection measure put in place by the copyright owner where
such protection measure otherwise effectively controls access to a
copyrighted work.2 This prohibition on unauthorized access takes effect two
years after enactment on the DMCA. Over this two year period, the Librarian
of Congress is to conduct a rulemaking proceeding to determine appropriate
exceptions to the prohibition>>
This part of the law makes it a crime to even "look" into a copy righted
object if one has to "break" a code prevents one from seeing the guts of the
program code.
Andrew the page you referenced has to do with libraries and other storage
reference archives.
