DRM prevents you from downloading copies of books you've purchased from online storefronts, but is it legal to bypass DRM to create backups? Cory Doctorow, an expert on the DMCA, weighs in on the subject.

Title from the article. Interesting article, with some good words from our DRM-free favorite Cory Doctorow.

    There is no “more illegal”. One is illegal, the other is not.

      Robbing a store is illegal. Murdering someone is also illegal, however one of the two is for good reasons punished much more harshly.

        It’s not a “take”, it is a fact.

        Stop commenting unless you have evidence to the contrary.
