DRM: It’s Not Really About Piracy
DRM; It’s Not Really About Piracy:
“Hollywood privately admits that DRM is not really about piracy. From the article: ‘In a nutshell: DRM’s sole purpose is to maximize revenues by minimizing your rights so that they can sell them back to you… Like all lies, there comes a point when the gig is up; the ruse is busted. For the movie studios, it’s the moment they have to admit that it’s not the piracy that worries them, but business models which don’t squeeze every last cent out of customers.’ You can take action on Digital Restrictions Management at DefectiveByDesign of the Free Software Foundation, Digital Freedom, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.”
