Thank you Sony!

I'm one of those people that for a long time have been trying to make people aware of the problems that comes with DRM systems like the copy protection software that's been added to music CD's for quite a while now. Sadly it is very difficult for us simple people to get the media's attention. They want a good story, one that hurts people - "good versus bad" or "big evil against little person". Until now it has been a one-sided debate about the very evil pirates that robs the poor music industry for billions upon billions of dollars and if you dared to say anything differently, you'd be flamed and burn marked as a freak and a supporter of those evil pirates.

You changed all that Sony and I'm very grateful that you decided to spend a lot of money to make it possible to get the media's attention! You brilliant plan to secretly install a rootkit on your customers computers is amazingly evil. Add to that the fact that you seem to be able to continue to come up with more evil stuff every day simply stuns me. You must have some really fantastic people working there, otherwise I can't imagine you'd be able to make this thing happen and continue getting that much attention to the campaign!

Thanks again Sony - I'll do my part to make sure that your message gets spread to as many as I can!
