On MacOS you still throw drives in the bin to eject them. Doesn't make MacOS a "complete disaster".

I'm sure that still works, but also a little eject icon appears next to the volume name in Finder, and "eject" is also in the context menu... At least for removable media.

Practically these guys wanted to test the law in court, hoping it would fail.
Exactly... I'd love to see that law burned and the people who voted for it removed from office and tried for treason, but I don't see how this is going to work. In the worst case our heroes get a punishment and get to be martyrs -- for making a Haskell port of the ancient decss?

In the best case, they get a court to say that decss is not an effective copy prevention measure, so it doesn't count. That seems to be their aim now. But that only seems like a temporary cure until the next "encryption" comes along.
