"This inconclusive ending of the Bernstein case is a consequence of the government's policy in cases where there are first amendment challenges to restrictions on the publication of software to claim that they have no intention of enforcing the law as it is written and thus getting the cases dismissed as moot."

and

"Although my case is now the leading case holding that publishing software is protected by the First Amendment, I do not believe that we would have had our success without the efforts of Dan Bernstein and his lawyers from the Electronic Freedom Foundation."
