Apple Prepares DRM For The iPad
,----[ Quote ]
| Slaveware companies go even further and use
| the word IP to confuse users. IP is a stupid
| bundle of Trademark, Copyright, Patent and
| much more. You can't put patents and Trademark
| in the same basket, especially in the case of
| software or products which are in the software
| format. In a lot of countries software patents
| are not valid, but with the usage of the word
| IP these companies try to bring software under
| that umbrella of protection.

| Interestingly, the iPad will not be

| sleeping-giant Gnu-Linux. Here is a
| comparison with some of the to-be-released
| Gnu-Linux powered tablets.

A look at Apple's love for DRM and consumer lock-ins
,----[ Quote ]
| Apple makes great productsâyou'll get no
| argument from us. But Apple also likes
| keeping tight control over those products,
| and if anyone outside of Apple's blessed
| circle attempts to get in, the company is
| more than willing to try to use (or abuse)
| the law to its advantage.

What is DRM doing in my garage?
,----[ Quote ]
| My new garage door opener comes with both DRM
| and a DMCA warning: don't even think about
| using a third-party remote. But didn't a
| federal court already say this sort of
| behavior was illegal years ago?

Apple & Audiobook Firms Insist On DRM
,----[ Quote ]
| Yes, Apple. The company that at one point
| claimed DRM was bad and should be ditched,
| and convinced the record labels to ditch DRM.
| Yet, as we've noted in the past, outside of
| music, Apple is still a huge DRM supporter.
