DRM比我想象中更有破坏力
摘自 http://slashdot.org/linux/06/11/27/1145230.shtml 的一篇评论 (精华总在评论中! — slashdot的名言)
DRM is about forcing you to run particular EXACT code, and either not running at all or refusing to talk to you if you are not. This also happens to be the essence of DRM too… so it’s a happy coincidence for the pro-DRMer within the technology companies.
Treacherous Computing is hardware that is meant to allow person X to set their hardware up to refuse to run (or not cage) software that is not digitally signed by them. As you can imagine, this COULD be extremely valuable for security. HOWEVER, the collection of companies making up the Trusted Computing Group (most of the tech companies) decided that the capability to TRUST should be reserved for them. You do not get to override it. This “trust” (only running approved code) starts with the BIOS, moves up to the kernel and in stuff like Vista it then moves into the media subsystem. In a few years, it will move into applications like web browsers, or word processors. Not running Microsoft Word? No you can’t open that document, sorry. Add into this nasty mix, the ability of Trusted Computing hardware to execute code IN SECRET, and you have a control freak’s wet dream. Not only can you not change what your computer does, you cannot even know what it is up to. The instructions are/can be encrypted.
Imagine it this way: a prison is very useful for keeping criminals in. It’s not so good if YOU are the convict. In trusted computing as it is formulated today, YOU ARE THE CONVICT. You do not have the keys. Don’t let them treat you like criminals. Demand the right to control your own PC — you paid for it.
Trusted Computing is a political issue because it is a massive power grab by the technology companies. People may think Stallman is over-reacting, but I assure you that he is not. Look into the implications properly.
注: Treacherous Computing = Trusted Computing

非常感谢您的建议，我们会认真的考虑和接纳。
1,关于胖号认领的功能，我们也在开发中，因为这个功能涉及到我们整个web方面的架构设计调整，所以暂时还没有在产品上推出。
2,生成胖号的去重功能已经加上了，刚才用你的Blog地址测试了一下，依然是62000296。
3,缓存内容的功能以及更新的机制，我们已经在内部测试中，以后将逐步上线，到时将有更好的用户体验。.
4,Blog评论的确很棒，但这个如果没有开发的接口我们也只能望洋兴叹。
5,我们也想要换掉那个进度条，把它移到屏幕下方，屏幕中依然可以显示当前的内容，UI的改进正在进行中……
感谢你的关注，技术支持我们就更要说谢谢了！

hi bruce老大，似乎那个手机无法访问的问题是这样，服务器再读你的blog的时候遇到了一点问题。似乎刚才我用ff浏览你的blog时也有这个问题，解图

那个二维码=〉openid的事儿，我跟isaac在讨论呢。也就是开放数字id库
[id].SimpleID.com，应该和openid绑定没问题。

sayonly: 我用FF 1.5.0.8/2.0 , IE6 , 还有FF 下面关掉JavaScript都试过了, 都没有出现你上面的情况啊
实在想象不出来, 是怎么回事
