Life imitates The Onion: Using the DMCA![[Wiki]](/adbanners/lookingglass.png){kind=small}
, SunComm sues Alex Halderman for pointing out that you can bypass their copy protection with the "shift" key.

Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
