NVIDIA's graphics drivers include telemetry and artificially slow the execution of algorithms they don't like. In other words, they're defective by design. https://u.fsf.org/3ij https://status.fsf.org/attachment/3490593

    Some might have forgotten about Intel #SGX and its relationship with DRM -- we didn't. Don't let DRM issues be swept under the rug. That's how DRM perpetuates. https://u.fsf.org/3i2

    #SharePlay? No thanks. Let us know when you can really share that media in a way that doesn't trample our freedom.

    The #DayAgainstDRM is upon us! Challenge yourself to go a Day without DRM by following our Guide, and boycotting those services and publishers that restrict their users' freedom. https://u.fsf.org/13

    Section 1201 of the DMCA is a nightmare, but the work of activists helped secure a round of new anticircumvention exemptions: https://u.fsf.org/3go

    Unlike those on Halloween, the DMCA is a monster that won't be going away in the morning. That's why Defective by Design works year-round to #endDRM.

    The latest round of DMCA anticircumvention exemptions are out. We're happy to have played a part in rallying the community together to support each and every exemption!

    All these years and we're still dealing with DRM in printers? Canon should get with the times -- and stop foisting DRM on their customers. https://u.fsf.org/3gg

    Surely corporate overlords being so generous as to graft DRM and a "lending license" onto ebooks is a great thing for libraries and the people they serve. Right? Right? (Hint: it's not.) https://u.fsf.org/3fw

    #DRM is unacceptable anywhere and everywhere it's present, but using it to discriminate against the poor and fuel corporate greed is a special kind of evil. https://u.fsf.org/3fk
