I disagree. I lump DRM into the general category of the new Web of
Authority idea where social networks are based on having "lots" of
information about your connections. The opposite was the early days of
social networking where people chatted anonymously on Yahoo using phoney
handles. People want validity, authentication, reality. DRM lets people
have valid licensed copies. It could work to Linux/OSS advantage as it
would do things like: Let someone validate they have a true build of a
product and not one that someone introduced with a back door that can be
exploited later.
