Not quite.  The latest CC-v3.0 draft (2006-10-25) states:

| When You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work, You may not impose
| any effective technological measures on the Work that restrict the
| ability of a recipient of the Work from You to exercise their rights
| granted under the License

Please note, among some other (minor) differences, the important word
"effective"...
