Here's a post on the gaming blog Blue's News about digital rights management. It seems the FCC is seeking consumer input about the use of technologies that impede the use of the materials they're bundled with. I have a few examples I may send in. It's surprisingly easy to get hit with the DRM stick. One example is downloadable books. While the actual audio books may be fine, the DRM often causes problems for people trying to use those books here at the library. It really is a consumer nightmare.

At some point, America needs to realize that as far as security goes, profiling is THE best tool available. El Al has been profiling since day one, and they are universally regarded as the most secure airline in the world.
Technology always depends on the people implementing it, and short of full cavity searches, there's no way to fully trust any technology. That is why human interaction, vis a vis questioning through profiling remains the only true method to maintain security.
