5 reasons to avoid iPhone 3G 5 reasons to avoid iPhone 3G

| The 5 real reasons to avoid iPhone 3G:
|
| * iPhone completely blocks free software. Developers must pay a tax to
| Apple, who becomes the sole authority over what can and can't be on
| everyone's phones.
| * iPhone endorses and supports Digital Restrictions Management (DRM)
| technology.
| * iPhone exposes your whereabouts and provides ways for others to track
| you without your knowledge.
| * iPhone won't play patent- and DRM-free formats like Ogg Vorbis and
| Theora.
| * iPhone is not the only option. There are better alternatives on the
| horizon that respect your freedom, don't spy on you, play free media
| formats, and let you use free software -- like the FreeRunner.

Action alert: Don't let the EU sanction DRM
,----[ Quote ]
| Yesterday, Viviane Reding, European Union commissioner for information
| society and media, issued a report sanctioning a "transparent" DRM framework
| for the EU. This irresponsible and senseless report comes just a day before
| Sony BMG announced that they would join Warner Music Group, EMI, and
| Vivendi's Universal Music Group in selling DRM-free music downloads in the
| United States.
