    RT @EFF@twitter.com

    15 years ago, EFF's @doctorow@twitter.com told Microsoft:

    1. That DRM systems don't work

    2. That DRM systems are bad for society

    3. That DRM systems are bad for business

    4. That DRM systems are bad for artists

    5. That DRM is a bad business-move

    He was right.
