I came across a recent article that might make for an interesting topic. It discusses the possibility of automakers using copyright law to prohibit DIY’ers and auto enthusiasts from repairing or modifying their own vehicles. It seems like an interesting development that has the potential to affect everyone from amateurs to companies whose entire business is based on performance upgrades. The DVD player install video comes to mind. It would be unlawful to install your own less expensive, customized unit and instead pay a lot more for the infotainment system designed by the automaker.
