Ye gods! Won't they ever learn that the street can screw any acronym?
Do we want to call it:
Digital Customer Emasculation (too misunderstandable?);
Don't-Copy Enforcement;
Device-Crippling Electronics;
Death of Consumer Entertainment;
Designed by Corporate Entertainment lawyers;
or something else?
Hopefully it will finally lead to the long-overdue
Dead Cocksuckers in the Entertainment industry. Bye bye HBO?
