One point to recall is that the rules, in spite of the Berne Convention, differ between country and territory - and that US rules apply no further than the US borders. In particular, the DCMA does not apply to me as a UK citizen.
Also, there is the rather odd circumstance with such as encryption software, which even in simple forms is considered to be a military weapon. As such, a US citizen (as I understand it) can download encryption developed and published outside the US, as can I, but I cannot download that same software from a US citizen. DRM is essentially encryption software, so there are certainly cases where something illegal in the US could be legal in other territories.
