It's the only sensible interpretation I can derive from the "thought provoking analogy" that you made here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/l4-hurd/2005-11/msg00325.html "I want to suggest that TPM is now in the stage comparable to "duplication before the printing press". Just as we would have been wrong to discourage scribes, we would now be wrong to discourage TPM." I seem to recall that you called DRM a 'clever abuse' of trusted computing, but I can't find it in the archive. You did call it a perversion of privacy though. Same difference. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/l4-hurd/2005-11/msg00126.html Thanks, Marcus _______________________________________________ L4-hurd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd
