toxicTom: DRM means someone else has control over stuff I "bought". IMO that's not acceptable. Either I buy something, and it's mine, or I pay for a service knowing, once I stop paying (or they don't want me any more as a customer), it's gone.
That's why I'm fine with Netflix, where I pay my monthly "library fee" knowing it's just that. That's why I'm not fine with Steam & co., or "buying" movies on Amazon Prime, because I kind of feel cheated, it's only the illusion of "owning" the stuff.

Also DRM won't stop the "bad people", it even turns "bad people" into heroes who "liberate art".
That would be a weird thing to say, especially if you consider how this world would look if law would be in ( slows down a moment to think this through ) not in the hands of the police.

DRM is a sign, a needed sign else it would not excist. This is not a cuffed up joke but created out of the necesity to keep designs in the hands of their creators/prevents people to go outside the lines that are agreed upon by buying the product.

The whole concept of ownership was due to change with the technological advancements of the past 2 decades. Everyone has their own opinion and .. so far their own choice... stuff will change, people will be mad if accustomed too. This does not mean it is entirely right of won't do anyone wrong but the general concensus seems to be that DRM is worthwile in some cases

Following the logic you usually display I'd probably go to the Epic Store forum to rant about it, then come back here to make another thread about sex on facebook.

Logic? Usually? you can't base a behavorial pattern on 2 posts ... at least i can't
it would be nice if you had shown an average of all my posts and their topics but that would be to much to ask now would it.....

started with posting 3 months ago

started with this post

https://www.gog.com/forum/general/distant_worlds_universe_one_of_the_best_military_space_novels_ever_written

really most posts are questions, either gaming or tech related... sometimes just an interest in fellow gogg'ers
i am gaming almost my entire life, mostly casual or better said hobby minded with a taste for war gaming and bioware inspired adventures

the sex post was just something that really really annoyed me as well as a link to a sort of favorite topic i had for a time namely the abuse found in the world everywhere

as a pretty outgoing active person i can imagine my behavior to call forth all kinds of emotions for some of the persons who enjoy another type of forum, this does not of course mean that - i will convert to all kinds of ways to keep stuff like that out of my personal space
