DRMs - This is how it should be done!


Recommended Posts

Our current system of patent laws is a mess. It wasn't built for this generation, and it shows. People are patenting things that were never meant to be ?owned?. Gene sequences, data, ideas! The whole system has to be rewritten from scratch.

I would venture to say that patent law will become one of the most challenging issues facing our society within the next century.

Ahem, what does patent law have to do with a discussion of DRM solutions deployed on today's media? :blink:

How does it not? :blink:

Something that is patented is not the same as copyrighted -- different laws apply. The DRM mechanism such as StarForce, Securom, etc may be patented, but the combination of game + DRM isn't ;)
