IGN - The Case For Gaming's Greater Good. Thanks Ant.
So you can see why perhaps some people might not want to contribute to his war chest. As someone who tends to look on organized boycotts as a tool of the enemy, I'd merely counter that, with development teams reaching into the triple digits, there's bound to be at least one person involved in every game who doesn't share your political views. In fact, Shadow Complex was written by another prolific sci-fi writer, Peter David, who is equally outspoken about how wrong he believes Card is on any number of subjects. I occasionally suspect David was hired onto the project without anyone mentioning it to Card until it was too late.

Games On Net -- Why Ubisoft's DRM worked.
And that’s what matters. See, what you have to understand here is that the DRM isn’t for you – it’s for Ubisoft. And I imagine they’re more than happy with it. Sure, they had to suffer a bit of negative publicity as predictably hysterical PC gamers howled for a total boycott of all Ubisoft products, but what do you think the associated loss of revenue would be? I’ll give you a little hint: not much.
