Title from the article. Interesting article, with some good words from our DRM-free favorite Cory Doctorow.

From a legal standpoint, is it more illegal to remove DRM or to just download DRM-freed content?

Meta lawyers think the second is fine, BTW.

It's more legal to share military secrets with journalists. Don't believe me? Wait and see how long that guy ends up spending in jail.

There is no "more illegal". One is illegal, the other is not.

It's not a "take", it is a fact.

Stop commenting unless you have evidence to the contrary.
