We need to stop AACS…NOW!
Do you really understand what’s going on in the video industry and their push towards High Definition? Under intense pressure from Hollywood, they are engineering a complete removal of the concept of fair use. They are also setting up systems that will completely control how, when, and where you can use content that you buy. Who says they can retroactively change the rules?!?
The AACS (Advanced Access Content System) organization announced availability of the interim version of their system for protecting content providers from their criminal customers. Their noble intentions are pretty much outrageous. Both HD-DVD and Blu-ray have embraced this horrible system, and the studios are salivating at the prospect of you never actually being able to own YOUR content again!!
