Certain medicines which are prone to abuse have mechanisms in each pill that make it difficult to be cut up and snorted. Dynamite has chemical tracers added to it to make its use easier to trace. Photocopiers cannot duplicate currency. In all these cases products have been made more tamper proof so as to resist abuse. How is DRM different, here?
- shmerl 14y agoI consider photocopying control idiotic. Other use cases that you mentioned seem to deal with poisons, weapons and etc. You surely see a difference with that, or you don't? The whole issue with DRM is the level of control. Preventing crime is good. Making a totalitarian police state is not. DRM leans towards the second (invasive control which is way beyond what is ethical).
