Not true, in the US.  Not since the DMCA and later bills which attach 
criminal penalties to copyright.

To be boringly pedantic about it, doesn't the DMCA only kick in when you do 
something to "circumvent" a tech that is being used for dig. rights man.?  (Which 
is a dangerous enough law to have around ...)
