According to an article in Macworld, the French government has decided not to force Apple, or any other distributor of digital content, to open up their DRM (digital rights management system). The proposed requirement for companies, which was being followed closely for the precedent it would have set had it gone through, at the last minute did not go through.French parliament voted to enforce penalties on persons engaging in illegal file-sharing programs, and voted to prevent users from legally cracking DRM systems and code. During the same meeting, a proposal to companies requiring that they make DRM systems work on a universal basis was discussed, though according to the website, has not been passed. That proposal is also being followed very closely by Apple and others. |
