The Corruptibles

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is pushing a new video that warns consumers that content creators want Congress to legislate their control of your content storage and playback devices.

I am strongly behind EFF on this issue. I do not support or use products with DRM; it gives too much control to corporations. I will not buy hardware or software that forces DRM on me and will actively look for ways around any DRM limitations. Once I have paid for a product I should be able to do whatever I want with it for personal use. I understand corporate desire to keep commericial piracy limited. I am not a commercial pirate. If I want to let a friend borrow a movie I should be able to let them borrow a movie.

I certainly will not accept software or hardware that decides for me how I may use a product I am paying for, leasing or renting.
