No one is changing anyone's mind today, you will always be in fear of the "gotcha" for me to learn I will have to be "gotcha'd". I do happen to work like that in many things in life. While you tend to take the opposite approach perhaps. There are beni's and negs to either approach in life.
Just to clarify. For me it's not a question of "fear of gotchas", but the question of rejecting an unethical approach (DRM). Same way let's say one would reject police state approach to society.
So avoiding distributors who proliferate DRM goes along that, as "voting with one's wallet".
