FTC & DRM

This US Federal Trade Commission Comment Form collects comments for an upcoming FTC Town Hall meeting to take a look at the issue of digital rights management from a consumer's standpoint. This Town Hall will be webcast on the Federal Trade Commission Website, and they are also soliciting for parties interested in participating in the event (thanks GamePolitics). Here's word:

Digital rights management (DRM) refers to technologies typically used by hardware manufacturers, publishers, and copyright holders to attempt to control how consumers access and use media and entertainment content. Among other issues, the workshop will address the need to improve disclosures to consumers about DRM limitations. Interested parties may submit written comments or original research on this topic.
