It is very possible that the people who frame laws and the Judiciary can all be bribed to impose insane M$ laws. It seems you are not familiar with US laws and their interpretation. For example including xmms in distributions is a problem. Anyway a PIL (public interest litigation) needs to filed rightaway on the matter. Maybe the registered LUGs like Ilug-Delhi should take the lead. Best A. Mani Member, Cal. Math.
