Windows 7 and general bitching about OSes
Sakura588:
If you read more than just the main article, I think you'll find just how wrong the guy who posted that article really is... ;)

i think your nearing the side of paranoia because as long as your computer functions while not on the internet. Which im pretty sure people dont have problems with.
But the only people who have real issues with DRM shit are people who typically are lesser affected by its effects in their OS. Because they use more programs to do shit in different ways.

Ignorance is bliss to some people. Then they try to justify it.
Anyways... I don't care how much you flame me, because I disagree and you can disagree with me. blah blah blah
mgz:
im not flaming you, just think you are blowing out of proportion how much their DRM actually affects your usage of the software and its functionality

My fear is mostly what DRM can do and not what it has done. Although there are many examples of things gone wrong with DRM in history (i've posted a few). I just feel that in the wrong hands in the future it will seriously turn against us. The most scary example is the vista License agreement that says that Microsoft owns you OS. Therefore, being owners they can do as they wish *if* they wish it. And my comment was to show that Win7 will probably do the same.
Am I paranoid? A bit, but I feel that I am right to be so.
