Security vs. Hackers

This is just another example of why DRM will not work, despite hundreds of millions of dollars being invested by the Record and Movie industries.

There are, and likely always will be, people that are willign to devote the time to reverse engineer encryption keys or protection methods. Any time data is transferred anywhere on your computer, there is some method for capturing it at the bit level for analyses.

Some solutions are simple, such as the shift key attack. Whatever the case, DRM is a pipedream that can never be truly achieved unless users are restricted from being able to use their computers.
