McAfee? Symantec??

I'll seperate these sentences, because I think it's important to consider these two very different concepts both individually and as a unit:

"Many of the subpoenas asked for information related to products that can be used to filter out adult content for underage Internet users."

"Symantec's subpoena, dated June 29, asked for a wide range of information about the price and popularity of the Internet filtering products it sells and how the products are used by customers."

How does the first relate to the second? Where's the connection between the two?

In another thread, I posited that perhaps Justice is going to try to use the DMCA to nail people who download porn "for free". It's the widest possible net they have- are they trying to figure out how people might use virus and adware scanners to keep from being caught under the DMCA's provisions?

This latest move makes about || <--- that much sense...
