Edward Felten spiega in che  modo Lexmark cerca di sfruttare il DMCA
per questa causa:

    http://www.freedom-to-tinker.com/archives/000248.html

    | Lexmark's DMCA theory is as follows.  The secret handshake is
    | a "technological measure" that "effectively controls access"
    | to the copyrighted printer software. By doing the secret
    | handshake, SC-brand cartridges circumvent that technological
    | measure. So the SC cartridges are circumvention devices that
    | are illegal under the DMCA.

Anche il resto dell'articolo e` molto interessante...
