A bill in Congress legalizes cell phone unlocking and fixes the DMCA
One of the most important things about this bill is that it takes care of the anti-circumvention provisions in a general way, rather than narrowly targeting cell phone unlocking.> (3) It is not a violation of this section to use, manufacture, import, offer to the public, provide, or otherwise traffic in any technology, product, service, device, component, or part thereof that is primarily designed or pro- duced for the purpose of facilitating noninfringing uses of works protected under this title by circumventing a technological measure that effectively controls access to that work, unless it is the intent of the person that uses, manufactures, imports, offers to the public, provides, or traffics in the technology, product, service, device, component, or part to infringe copyright or to facilitate the infringement of a copyright.
