How would DCMA even apply to something "open" like HTML?

  If you write a huge javascript library and started selling it, then someone stole it and released it for free- you would issue a DMCA because you own that code. Just because its HTML doesnt make it 'not free'

    What you are describing is pre-DMCA copyright. What DCMA added was laws which add sanctions against reverse-engineering closed systems.

      Amongst other things, including the new avenues for filing breaches of copyright against web sites and content providers.
