I saw the petition. I have been an opponent of "software copy
protection" since I first encountered it in about 1982 or
thereabouts. IMO, it only hurts legitimate users. The scoff
laws will continue to find a way to pirate software.

However, I cannot "sign" the petition, because I cannot
imagine how it violates my right. Reword the petition
to "I object to it, and will not purchase or install any
software made subject to it" and I can sign.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
