<div>Como já dizia o sábio:</div>"ôoo, é sempre mais do mesmo. Não era isso o que você queria ouvir?" <div><br>Na real, nunca vi abaixo assinado por email/petição online dar resultado, ainda mais contra Steve Jobs... </div>
<div><br></div><div>Mas até onde eu sei, ele mesmo não gosta dos modelos de DRM que existem hoje, e nos equipamentos dele, existem DRM mais por questão de indústria e aspectos legais do que por incentivo da Apple.</div><div>
<br></div><div>Mesmo assim, os GNUs que não gostam/não querem cair nas implicações de DRM que o "celular de Itu" vai impor, resta não comprar o equipamento e seguirem felizes e contentes dentre seu conceito de liberdade :-)</div>

Com o lançamento hoje do iPad, a FSF divulgou através de sua lista um<br>
aviso sobre as restrições DRM contidas neste dispositivo (na verdade<br>
em quase todos dispositivos Apple).<br>
<br>
Segue abaixo o texto original em inglês. Basicamente eles<br>
disponibilizaram um "abaixo assinado" que será endereçado ao Steve<br>
Jobs contestando esta prática de "travamento" dos dispositivos Apple<br>
que obrigam você a adquirir softwares somente da Apple Store, fazendo<br>
com que, você que comprou o dispositivo, não tenha liberdade de fazer<br>
o que quiser com ele.<br>
<br>
Sei que é um assunto não relacionado ao CentOS, porém diz respeito à<br>
software livre.<br>
<br>
Abraços!<br>
Lincoln<br>

SAN FRANCISCO, California, USA -- Wednesday, January 27, 2010 -- As<br>
Steve Jobs and Apple prepared to announce their new tablet device,<br>
activists opposed to Digital Restrictions Management (DRM) from the<br>
group Defective by Design were on hand to draw the media's attention to<br>
the increasing restrictions that Apple is placing on general purpose<br>
computers. The group set up "Apple Restriction Zones" along the<br>
approaches to the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco,<br>
informing journalists of the rights they would have to give up to Apple<br>
before proceeding inside.<br>

<br>
DRM is used by Apple to restrict users' freedom in a variety of ways,<br>
including blocking installation of software that comes from anywhere<br>
except the official Application Store, and regulating every use of<br>
movies downloaded from iTunes. Apple furthermore claims that<br>
circumventing these restrictions is a criminal offense, even for<br>
purposes that are permitted by copyright law.<br>
<br>
Organizing the protest, Free Software Foundation (FSF) operations<br>
manager John Sullivan said, "Our Defective by Design campaign has a<br>
successful history of targeting Apple over its DRM policies. We<br>
organized actions and protests targeting iTunes music DRM outside Apple<br>
stores, and under the pressure Steve Jobs dropped DRM on music. We're<br>
here today to send the same message about the other restrictions Apple<br>
is imposing on software, ebooks, and movies. If Jobs and Apple are<br>
actually committed to creativity, freedom, and individuality, they<br>
should prove it by eliminating the restrictions that make creativity and<br>
freedom illegal."<br>
<br>
The group is asking citizens to sign a petition calling on Steve Jobs to<br>
remove DRM from Apple devices. The petition can be found at:<br>

<br>
"Attention needs to be paid to the computing infrastructure our society<br>
is becoming dependent upon. This past year, we have seen how human<br>
rights and democracy protesters can have the technology they use turned<br>
against them by the corporations who supply the products and services<br>
they rely on. Your computer should be yours to control. By imposing such<br>
restrictions on users, Steve Jobs is building a legacy that endangers<br>
our freedom for his profits," said FSF executive director Peter Brown.<br>
<br>
Other critics of DRM have asserted that Apple is not responsible, and it<br>
is the publishers insisting on the restrictions. However, on the iPhone<br>
and its new tablet, Apple does not provide publishers any way to opt out<br>
of the restrictions -- even free software and free culture authors who<br>
want to give legal permission for users to share their works.<br>
<br>
"This is a huge step backward in the history of computing," said FSF's<br>
Holmes Wilson, "If the first personal computers required permission from<br>
the manufacturer for each new program or new feature, the history of<br>
computing would be as dismally totalitarian as the milieu in Apple's<br>
famous Super Bowl ad."<br>
