What I really should have asked: Does the provision that allows you to "circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to works" allow you to circumvent network and data center security measures? I'd expect not, but I don't see where the bill draws a line between devices (phones, game consoles, dvds) and other types of information stores.

The line isn't between devices and other types of information stores, it's between something that is your own property and something that isn't.

The DMCA wouldn't make it legal for me to unlock your phone without your permission, only mine.
