Re: [dvd-discuss] Re: Dave Farber on ALERT: CBDTPA = Intel TCPA?

DO you actually expect the DoJ to have red lights flashing on this one? 
Ashcroft is probably drooling right now. DId the DoJ stop the 
consolidations of Boeing, Lockmart, HP-Compaq? They haven't seen a merger 
that they didn't like why should a little government sponsored monopoly to 
further their interests be a problem.

Of course, the TCPA has nothing to do with security or
privacy, since those are OS-level things. All it can really
do is ensure you're running a particular OS.

It's amazing the TCPA isn't raising all kinds of red flags
at the justice department already - it's the most flagrant
attempt to stifle competition I've ever seen.
