DATE 2006-06-05
FROM Ruben Safir
SUBJECT Re: [NYLXS - HANGOUT] DRm is Theft and the FSF
DVD-Recordable.org:

As Microsoft developers gathered in Seattle to hear Bill Gates's
keynote speech on the future of Microsoft and the coming release of
its updated operating system Vista, protesters wearing bright yellow
Hazmat suits swarmed the entrance of the city's convention center,
delivering an unsettling message to the corporation: your product
is defective and hazardous to users….The surprise protest marked
the launch of DefectiveByDesign.org, a direct-action campaign that
will target Big Media and corporations peddling Digital Restrictions
Management (DRM). "Flash protests, direct actions, and practical ways
that people can get involved and help stop the stupidity of DRM,"
is how campaign manager Gregory Heller described the grassroots
effort….An initiative of the Free Software Foundation (FSF),
Defective By Design is urging all technologists to get involved at
the start of the campaign.

Here's the photo (see copyright disclaimer regarding this photo at the
end of this blog post), courtesy of DefectiveByDesign.org:

WinHECstreetscene.jpg

There are two issues here.

1. Digital rights management is like unsolicted commercial e-mail. UCE
was just never an acronym that resulted in awareness or action. UCE
needed something sexier that the masses could sink their teeth into.
Something like "spam." DRM, as acronyms go, isn't going to make Otis
turn red in the gills with anger. And, with all due respect to the Free
Software Foundation which is behind DefectiveByDesign.org, I can think of
a million things that are defective by design. DRM needs a special name.
A name that you can sink your teeth into like "spam." A name like "CRAP."
Even better, Richard Stallman, the leader of the Free Software Foundation,
likes the acronym CRAP and came up with a better suggestion than I did for
what it should stand for (one that ZDNet's readers approved of)! Stallman
wants CRAP to stand for Cancellation, Restriction And Punishment.
Works for me and it's ZDNet-reader approved. So, to you anti-DRM folks
who want that crap out of your lives, use CRAP to get your point across.

2. Here on ZDNet, and in email, I've been taking some heat for
my idealism, or in this case, my lack thereof, when it comes to
DRM… er… CRAP. Follow this thread for an example. Some readers
would rather see me stick to the hard line of buying and advocating
nothing that includes DRM. In essence, donning a hazmat suit like the
CRAP-fighters above (personally, what better metaphor can you ask for..
hazmat suits, crap…get the picture?). So, just to be clear, I haven't
personally purchased any DRM-related material since first figuring out
the downside for myself (not being able to play 99 cent songs on a $20K
whole home audio system). That said, I've had people come up to me
and ask which MP3 player they should buy for themselves or someone else
as a gift and, invariably, they're not open to the idea of not buying
one at all, buying one that takes a lot of work (circumventing DRM,
digitizing music yourself), or breaking the law. I know. They must be
from another planet. Freaks.

OK, back on Earth, these people exist. And so, the question is, do you
stick to your ideals, walk away, and let them suffer from their own lack
of enlightenment. Or, do you at least try to guide them to something
that's a fender bender compared to a fatal accident? I will vote with
my dollars. But, at the same time, if there are people out there that
refuse to heed the ultimate advice, I can't let my idealism stand in
the way of steering people away from the trainwrecks. That's why I'll
try to guide people like that to solutions like Navio or Project DReaM,
only after giving up on convincing them to not buy any of this CRAP.
CRAP is a dirty business and in the end, it's we, the users, who get
dumped on. But there are some things we can do to control the extent
to which that happens.

As a side note, I have begun circulating a note internally here at
CNET Networks that asks those in a position to do so to take a harder
line against DRM than is traditionally taken across all of our Web
properties. It includes some concrete editorial measures that can be
taken in order to better inform our audience members of the consequences
every time they vote for DRM with their dollars.
