Microsoft's proposed palladium demands comment.  Read about it in this article.  Or read the comments about it from the Register.

So, here's my comment: Palladium is fatally flawed, and it will never succeed. Why? The current situation of our computers and the Internet demands mutual distrust. That's a very good thing. It's true that newbies tend to be trusting, but it's part of one's computer and Internet education to learn to be suspicious. Palladium is a radical change; it departs from mutual distrust to complete trust. A world of complete trust is an entirely new world. Anything that would have an impact on trust must be carefully controlled. It's that need for control that will cause the technology to be rejected.
