Probably one of the most important talks of 39C3. It's a powerful call to action for the European Union to wake up and do the right thing to ensure digital sovereignty for itself and everyone else in the world. The time is definitely right due to the unexpected allies to be found along the way. It'd be a way to turn the currently bad geopolitical landscape into a bunch of positive opportunities.

Very nice editorial. It's clear that the level of trust in the technologies we depend on is low... but that's not due to the technologies themselves it's more about the business practices around them. In the end the solution will have to be political, in the meantime we ought to support the good players.

Once more, an excellent piece from Cory Doctorow. Allowing DRM encumbered devices could only lead to the mess we're seeing nowadays.

If you can't download it without DRMs you just don't own it, you're renting it. This is completely different.

Don't you love DRMs in cars? Especially when the business people at the helm are pathological liars?

After the backlash about WEI on Chrome, now they're going for something similar but scoped only for medias. At least now things are clear that it was mainly about pushing for DRMs to serve media producers.
