There is a lot of postive attitudes around open source software, and the
freedoms it gives us.  But already ( would you believe it) the large
corporations are plotting to manage and limit those freedoms.  The TCPA (
trusted computing platform alliance ) will limit the ability of your computers
to replay digital content.. ( and as thats alot of what a computer does its a
big issue).

Maybe we could get a position on the TCPA at aktivix_II ?
