Major redraft after consideration and first public posting.

Browse source 
After publishing, two things came to mind.  First, we must assure
that the FOSS project is acting in good faith to curtail bad actors
from, say, slapping a copy of the GPL on a Hollywood film and calling
it a FOSS project.

Second, it's important to mention circumvention techniques explicitly
to make it abundantly clear we're concerned about any §1201
enforcement — be they takedown related or not.
