- jraph 2y agoFor some reason, I didn't really get your comment, and here is the quote from the article you linked that fixed it: > Aucsmith said that more and more, software companies and content creators are targeting users as a major threat to security. The reason? With a few keystrokes, users could freely distribute "bits that have value," said Aucsmith -- copying such content as software, DVD video and other valuable data. Ugh. And that's not security. Nobody is compromised when someone copies those bits.
