Earlier quoted context omitted.

Can we get the two paragraph version of the technical case in favor of DRM now? I'm very curious.

* That the current state of the industry in crypto development is so weak and poorly understood that many of the statements people make about DRM are rooted not in theory but in observations about incompetant cryptosystems, and that when implemented well, DRM crypto actually has a good track record (cryptocard satellite TV, Blu-Ray). I was hoping to use this thesis as a coat rack for a bunch of practical advice about…

Also, since Matt Knox will be there, this would fit well in a there's interesting problems even in the "evil" side of programming theme.

Amazon seems to always be hiring. Give us a shout - this includes internships too. By the way, I did 6 internships total during college, and Amazon was by far the most enjoyable one. If you're a student, apply.

How did you score the Amazon internship? I once dropped my resume into their jobs application black hole never to hear from them again.
