  Linus Torvalds blesses DRM, and nothing happens
Time: 07:01 EST/12:01 GMT | News Source: The Register | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner

Last week Linus Torvalds said share denial technology, or DRM (Digital Rights Management) is OK. He did so on a linux kernel mailing list and so anticipating the reaction, with the Subject line: Flame Linus to a crisp!, he wrote:

"I'm going to just hunker down for some really impressive extended flaming, and my asbestos underwear is firmly in place, and extremely uncomfortable."

Linus added:

"The technology itself is pretty neutral, and I'm personally pretty optimistic."
