Just what isn't automatically copyrighted under
state laws, and/or the Berne convention, upon
creation?  Everything is.  I.e., whatever he
decides to encrypt is copyrighted automatically.
Therefore, any cracking falls under the DMCA.
So, if he decides to crack encryption, even his
own, he must specificly obtain legal permission.
Per DMCA, Section 1201(a)(3)(A), you must be
authorized to decrypt.  That section does not
exclude the copyright holder from obtaining
authorization.

But, I'm not a lawyer ...
