I understand but the main reason for the existence of drm and tc is
money and with my money I supported something I don't like.
If everyone buy things with this technology inside, even if nobody use
it, vendors will be interested in manufacturing it.
In this way we are helping spread drm and tc even if we didn't use it.

This is why I'm sad.

The only thing I can do now it's stop suggesting Lenovo notebooks as a
choice.
