[Infowarrior] - EFF on car maintenance as DMCA issue

Marcia Hoffmann for EFF on how repair of automobiles that
are, in effect, V8 computers, is a DMCA issue

https://www.eff.org/files/2014/11/03/eff_dmca_petitioncarmodification_dkt._2014-07.pdf

which is beginning to show up, e.g., at

http://autos.aol.com/article/will-copyright-law-stop-you-from-working-on-your-car-in-the-near/

I think that this is a total lost cause and self-driving
cars are the reason.  Insurance pricing will, in due course,
make this so.
