DRM and what might be done about it

Isn't saying "digital
Isn't saying "digital restrictions management DRM" redundant? It looks odd to me, at least.
Additionally...
I thought DRM stood for Digital Rights Management.
Depends if you're for it or against it
People who are against DRM prefer to call it 'Restrictions' rather than 'Rights'.
Zak is not a friend of punctuation
Ideally, it would be "Digital Rights Management (DRM)," but Zak is not a friend of punctuation. Lousy writing skills is one of the reasons nobody takes him seriously.
Perhaps we should be bar Zak
Perhaps we should bar Zak from posting any more stories until he demonstrates an ability to construct a story that people actually want to read.
His posts thus far are probably really important, but no one cares enough to read the entire post because it's like trying to read the novel in one's alphabet soup and the issue goes ignored by the UH community.
