Yes. So now anything that is encrypted for security reasons. Anything
at all, a book, CD's, DVD's etc. Are under the exclusive rights of the
copyright holder. Not just the content, but how, when, and where you
can even view the content. Which I believe to be a severe infringement
on personal rights. This isnt about copyright integrity, this is about
control.
