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.
