Or we will have no rights at all!

Ok, how about we remove all piracy protection from games, music, movies, etc..... period.

Then, we can simply have forced registeration with complex CD-keys in order to use products. That sounds like a fair compromise to me. Then when one of you pirating bastards turns in a duplicate key you'll be investiaged by someone not desiring for arse holes to receive things for free, while others go hard to work to buy the things they like - and they find you're a pirate, well, then you'll wind up in court.

Hi Clarentavious
Great to see you are still answering this type of post!
I am not talking about pirating S/W,I am talking about having a computer that will only run authenticated stuff.ie if my friend writes a program for me,(which he doe's by the way)it won't be able to run,as the hardware will see it as illegal s/w.
Tell me,you have never backed up S/W that that you have legally brought?
