New edition of Peace

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

DRM is an anti-copy technology and it really is awesome news if it's being dropped by a major publisher. All anti-piracy mechanisms always end up only hurting the legitimate users, not the pirates (who always find ways to circumvent them and end up with a more user-friendly product!).
