DRM Apocalypse
For the first time in history, we can copy content and distribute it over massive global networks. We can put copies on every device we own, and we can even modify the content to suit our own needs. But more important, and don't miss this now, for the first time in history, the content producers and distributors have a technological way of shutting off Fair Use through contract language, DRM technology, and anti-circumvention laws. I've said it before and I'll say it again: DRM is not about piracy, it's about shutting down fair use. It makes a lot of sense when you start thinking about DRM being Sonny Bono's twin brother. It's one of the key pieces of that horrid affront to the progress of civilization: the perpetual copyright.
I almost missed this fantastic editorial by Ken "Caesar" Fisher on Ars Technica. I think he hit the nail on the head.
