US DMCA is not only ridiculous but also illegal since it violates the US
 constitution. Sadly, I don't see any public outcry against this and
other laws like eavesdropping without a court order and other violations
of basic rights as written in the constitution. Should I care for this
really sad situation in which "the greatest democracy" is in?
unfortunately the answer is yes because the US government influences and
puts pressure on other countries to adjust to their view and thus
indirectly influences our local laws.
This is evident in the raid on the pirate bay's servers which was
illegal according to local law and was done due to pressure from the US
administration.
our local copyright law was recently changed to be more like the US one,
 due to similar reasons.
