Seth Finkelstein writes "Richard Stallman has
a great essay about the issues surrounding
'Trusted Computing'/Palladium/DRM, etc:
'Can You Trust Your Computer?'
It's very relevant to the issues of various law and code restrictions:
There are proposals already for U.S. laws that would require
all computers to support treacherous computing, and to
prohibit connecting old computers to the Internet. ...
To oppose treacherous computing, we must join
together and confront the situation as a collective choice."
On the Stallman tip, FOS blog notes that Free Software, Free Society was published this month by GNU press.
