[A2k] L&E and DRM/ TPMs - parking lot analogy

[Richard M Stallman]

    However, changing the effective law (in the sense of how courts
    will rule) in this way doesn't appear to be realistically possible
    during the foreseeable furture

I agree with you.  At present we do not have enough political
strength.  But it is growing every year.  It looks like the Pirate
Party in Sweden may get someone into the European Parliament in the
coming elections.

      For this reason, I would
    advise to set a goal which is realistically achievable, and beneficial
    both for people with visual disabilities as well as for users of
    information resources in general.

I'm in favor of campaigning for realizable goals that take us along
the path towards a later more complete victory.

What we need most is to call people's attention to the issue and tell
them they are entitled to stand up for their rights.  Campaigns at the
public level do this; talking privately with WIPO tends not to do it.
