RE: Digg?
I followed all of that from the comfort of slashdot. I don't think the digg users were being immature at all, it's a fight for freedom and it's time the mafiaa fell. The leaking of the processing key should be a message to all the do-gooders out there: DRM doesn't work. It stops legitimate users, but if you've given people the tools to watch the media you've also given them the tools to copy it, obscure or not. It's only the average Joe or Jane that suffers, the crackers don't even flinch.
was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
