We wrote an article lately on the criticism Microsoft has received for its Digital Rights Management (DRM) included in the Windows Vista operating system that intends to make life harder for pirates. Unfortunately, as DRM has shown us in the past, these kind of restrictions hurt honest consumers every single day too.

Alex Ionescu, has written on his blog that he has produced code that could be used to bypass Vista's DRM. He did not publish the code but he promised in a later post he will publish some form of "safe, generic, proof of concept code that targets what I believe is a flaw in the Code Integrity/Driver Signing model."
