The DMCA created a situation where circumventing encryption for the purpose of gaining access to copyrighted works is a crime. If you're doing it to learn what's in that encrypted folder on your neighbor's HD, that's ok. That is as long as he doesn't have any of his copyrighted material in that folder. If you're doing it to learn national secrets, that's ok too as far as the DMCA is concerned. Other laws would apply, but not the DMCA.
