"But think about the artists!" is a favorite refrain of so-called "intellectual property" enthusiasts (aka corporations.) Hear from one #DefectiveByDesign (DBD) guest writer and musician about how #DRM totally cramped his style: u.fsf.org/1rx #EndDRM #Music

When we're as surrounded by streaming platforms as we are now, it's easy to forget that the DRM-free life still exists. Even now, there are dozens of record labels, publishers, and online retailers that refuse to abuse their customers. 1/2

DRM ruins efforts at historical preservation. If all of our media is locked up in digital streaming platforms -- which will go under eventually -- how will it be preserved for future generations? Live DRM-free instead: u.fsf.org/1aj #EndDRM #DRM

A truly free education means DRM-free. Together, we can build a future in which everyone will be able to learn in freedom and will know their rights as a user. 1/2
