DRM being part of the “standard” just opens the door for Hollywood to sue you if you don’t employ the “industry standard” in order to help protect their information on your site / product / app etc.

This is just like when the banks got the law changed so that website owners who got hacked could be charged $50 per account to compensate banks for having to re-issue cards on those accounts. Why shouldn’t they be forced to create a system that can’t be stolen online?

So, all you yapping Libertarians here on FreeRep, how about we just denounce one of the rockbeds of Conservatism altogether - property rights, since so many here believe we no longer have need of them, as that just like the socialists, everything belongs the collective of “the people”.
