I started an organization to dismantle the DMCA - here's why

From youtube.com•Aug 28, 2025•16m watch time

Louis Rossmann announces the creation of Fulu Foundation, a nonprofit organization aimed at reforming the DMCA's Section 1201, which criminalizes bypassing digital locks even for device repair. He demonstrates how companies like Echelon and Future Home use firmware updates to disable functionality and force subscription payments, then shows a successful repair that could land the developer in federal prison for sharing it. The foundation offers bounties for device repairs and is building a database of ownership violations to support legislative reform efforts.
