The United States is founded on illegal behavior (sedition and treason). If the founders of the country have taught us anything it should be that great things come from those willing to break the law in furtherance of mankind.

Well, good...for those still affected by DRM.<p>I've managed to avoid DRM in an even simpler way: I consume far less content than I used to. And I have only the DRM-using companies to thank for that. When I finally took stock of my free time and realized what a waste it was to sit on my ass for 2 hours to passively absorb even one stupid movie, I basically stopped. Sure I watch things now and then, but nowhere <i>near</i> as much as before. I can pretty much guarantee that had there been no ridiculous roadblocks making it painful to consume content, I'd still be buying more than I do now. I wouldn't have seen a reason to change. So, thank you media companies; your intense desire to not be in business has helped me free up some time.

It's a brave new world when thinking/discussing certain topics is illegal.

Interesting that Spolsky didn't just post that himself instead of giving a blurb to Attwood to post.
