Ironic. China makes hardware that will not run pirated software!
And China's piracy rate is 90%, the last I had read. LOL.

Well, depending on the chip - I gather Intel's po-faced Pentium-D or whatever they want to call it has this DRM stuff built in.

DRM... digital rights for whom? Not the consumer, that's for sure.

Philosophical talk on what 'piracy' is isn't any fun anymore. The corporate elite will do what they want when they want and justify the inconsistencies anyway. And when people are in power, that scenario is routine. Even in prior human 'civilizations' and future ones if we survive peak oil and reclaim enough land for growing food...
