David Berlind has had an outstanding series of posts excoriating what he — following Dan Gillmor — refers to as Digital Restrictions Management. Go, David! We need more champions and hellcats. Speaking of Dan, he blogs about Bush's staged "teleconference" with soldiers in IRaq: "Wouldn't it have been more honest to use actual marionettes?" And Eschaton comments, under the post title "Commander in Chief":
