Much of the copyright law consists of exceptions which allow certain limited unlicensed uses, but there is no clear line defining, for example, how much is too much to copy. So while a teacher compiling clips from a feature film for educational purposes is technically allowed to break DRM, the technology that enables that also happens to enable illegal unlicensed uses.
