I don't have to show you a ruling. I showed you a link to the DMCA. "VIOLATIONS REGARDING CIRCUMVENTION OF TECHNOLOGICAL MEASURES- (1)(A) No person shall
circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title."
The act of decrypting an encrypted copyrighted work is, on it's face illegal. I never said it trumped Fair Use. That will probably have to be decided by the Supreme Court. I'm just pointing out the law on it. It says what it says.
