These developers or whatever don't make it easy for you anymore.
That's because they feel as if they have the right to control *your* computer.
Imagine if you bought a car, and the salesman insisted on installing a device that
only allowed your car to steer itself to those places that the salesman approved of.
My advice to everyone... and bear in mind that this is just me exercising my right
to free speech... is to do whatever you have to do in order to defeat DRM.
If that means pirating and hacking... then so be it. I'm fed up with this industry.
I'm sure that most of you are just as fed up as I am. We are entering a new era,
in which getting angry and taking matters into our own hands just might be the
only way to protect ourselves from being exploited. Lord knows that the courts
and the legislators are not doing a fucking thing to protect us from unethical
business practices... so when the system fails, the people need to take over.
Obeying the law is always preferable... but when the law becomes the enemy
of the common man and woman... then the law itself is oppressive and needs
to be disobeyed. So hey, people... do as your heart tells you to do and to hell
with the fucking Establishment.
By the way... if you think I'm being a "subversive" for saying such things, then take
a good look at all of those Wall Street bailouts. That's YOUR money being paid as
a fucking reward to the very same Establishment parasites who SCREWED US
UP THE ASS. Then decide what "subversive" means in this context.
All of this shit -- DRM included -- is just a symptom of a much larger disease.
