Frankly, I've got extremely little sympathy for the DMCA in general, so anybody that tells it to go to h*ll, even if it is the government, automatically attracts my sympathy.

And I've got even less for Davenport's obtuseness. Yes, I know it is a program he developed in his spare time, but once you got a promotion for it, well, that means it just got professional, and the code becomes "company" (USAF in this case) property. Davenport was insubordinate, and actively acting against the interests of the USAF. ******* him.
