I feel very strongly that they're exactly within scope. The scope of the DFSG is "freedom", not "copyright law". I don't think it's an accident that the term "copyright" doesn't even appear in the DFSG. Anything which is used to abridge the freedoms that attach to Free Software violates the DFSG. -- G.
