Re: FC: MIT programmers create 7-line Perl app that decrypts DVDs

DVD CSS decoding in 7 lines of perl is a cute hack, but it doesn't accomplish one of the main goals of DVDCSS, which is to explain the structure of the lame crypto algorithm. Even if you unwrap this to put the white space back, it's dense unreadable line noise.
