You reply as if the only possible utility from a DRM system was preventing content ending up on a darknet. Clearly, DRM doesn't have utility on that point, since even content that's legitimately only available with DRM ends up on darknets all the time. My point was there there's utility of different kind and the other kind of utility is there even if the DRM is broken as long as it retain the legal appearance of constituting something that triggers anti-circumvention law. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@hsivonen.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
