The Associated Press reports that iPhone owners will now be able to legally unlock their devices so they can run software applications that haven't been approved by Apple Inc., this being part of an announcement from the Library of Congress yesterday afternoon. ( MSNBC.com’s report )
Every three years the Library of Congress reviews & determines whether there are any classes of works that would be subject to exemptions from the statutes prohibition against circumventions of technology that effectively control access to a copyrighted work, that determination being made at the conclusion of a rulemaking proceeding conducted by the Register of Copyrights. Six classes of materials are now designated this period. (See Library announcement) ( Federal Register )
