Defective by Design now Targeting the B&N Nook
The anti-DRM activist group Defective by Design have set their eyes on a new target: the Barnes & Noble Nook.
Things have changed and now the Nook represents a real threat to users because of its invasive DRM, close relationship with DRM champions Adobe, and because of its use of the Android operating system — which might lead many to think the Nook is not defective by design.
This group has a goal of raising public awareness of the horrors of DRM, with the eventual goal of geting major content companies to stop using it.
If I were B&N, I wouldn’t be worried.
