Sony DRM designed to annoy Apple users
Just as a public service to everyone. Amazon.com is currently listing DRM copy protected CD’s as such. If you have concerns regarding privacy, and operability you can check your CD’s on Amazon before you buy.
Another example where conventional wisdom is wrong…
When you approach an intersection where the traffic light is flashing yellow…. You DO NOT treat it as a stop sign. Flashing yellow means caution, flashing red means stop. The radio announcers telling you to treat the flashing yellow traffic signal as a stop sign are not quoting Georgia law (or any other state that I have been in).
Flashing yellow means proceed with caution. Slow down, look, be careful… That sort of thing.
Flashing red means stop and yield right of way to traffic coming the other way.

I’m still trying to figure out why the government feels it needs the ability to surveil your conversations without first obtaining legal authorization to do so.
Upon reading about the new “complain online and be suspended” policy, my first reaction is that this constitutes a violation of freedom of speech. Unfortunately, after a little thought, the school is a private organization, and freedom of speech does not include freedom from repercussion.
From Slashdot – “The Washington Post is reporting that recently discovered documents indicate serious intelligence violations by the FBI. This comes just months after the U.S. House voted to extend the Patriot Act, EPIC (the Electronic Privacy Information Center) has obtained documents through the Freedom of Information Act of thirteen cases of possible misconduct in intelligence investigations. The case numbering suggests that there were at least 153 investigations of misconduct at the FBI in 2003 alone.”
