German weekly Die Zeit has an article on the Chaos Communications Congress. It's the best I've read so far in the mainstream press, if only out of a pretty poor lot.

The threat to freedom that is Digital Restrictions Management (DRM) is up on the agenda at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting at Davos, Switzerland, sez DRMwatch.

This being a meeting place of high-level politicians and managers, with the public and the media comfortably locked out, it looks like a perfect opportunity to promote far-reaching restrictions on culture, technology and communications, as promoted by the people who expand "DRM" to "Digital Rights Management".

Don't be surprised to see this trend gather more speed soon.
