This article provides an important back story to our DRM campaign. Here at DefectiveByDesign we try to give our readers the bigger picture of how DRM is a threat to society's freedom: it's more than just about access to music and movies.
('Kettling' refers to the police tactic of surrounding a large group of protestors in the middle of a protest and keeping them under siege for hours.)
