I really don't understand why people think this is such a big deal. If the USA want to have the DMCA then that's up to them.

Linux will still continue and the rest of the world will still have all the information about security as per normal.
Basically it comes down to:
America: We don't want to hear about security threats
World: Sure, doesn't bother us one bit.

This isn't a security problem, a Linux problem or disclosure prolem. It is a US problem.

I think ill go read the changelog now :P
