You know, gradually we are. But of course we still have a lot of opposition, we still have a lot to fight. You know, there's something else in the New Zealand Copyright Law that was adopted a year ago, which is unjust, and it prohibits in some cases the distribution of Free Software that can break digital handcuffs. More and more products are designed with digital handcuffs, that is features to stop the user from doing things. So nowadays when I hear about a new product or a new service my first thought is &ldquo;what's malicious in that?&rdquo;, &ldquo;how is it designed to restrict what you can do?&rdquo;. And these products are very malicious, for instance there is the Amazon Kindle, it's an e-book reader, and they call it the Kindle to express what it's designed to do to our books.
