FairUse4WM Breaks Windows DRM
An anonymous reader writes "FairUse4WM, according to engadget, "can be used to strip Windows Media DRM 10 and 11". What does the slashdot community think of this development in the ongoing cat-and-mouse game going on between big media and what is available online?"
There are lots of things you can't do with your Linux machine. You have chosen to use Linux, and for that choice you have the advantage of an operating system that doesn't crash daily, but you also have the disadvantage of not being able to use all the software that is available, and you can't use all the DRM content that you want on your machine.
Your choice to use a Linux box doesn't give you the right to circumvent the law.
It's all part of a cost-benefit analysis, like everything else in life.
Slashdot, where you get modded down as redundant for stating an opposing viewpoint... Independent thought anyone?
I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that you think teaching abstinence would be effective if it weren't for the "it it feels good, do it" mindset of America's youth.
