That gets them around the "prohibition on circumvention of access controls". I still don't understand how they can then go and distribute the programs without violating copyright. In fact, I'm still pretty certain they are violating copyright.

Copyright sucks, and I applaud them for what they are doing, but I don't see how any of this is legal.
