You sound like the type of guy who wouldn't exercise his right to vote because "one vote won't make a difference" and then riducule everyone else who does.

I don't think that anyone here is under the illusion that this petition will make UBI remove the DRM. That's not the point. The point is to show them how many potential customers have a problem with it... and I think that the fact that there are already 2000+ names on it will show them that maybe it's not just a handful of people, but a real percentage of their customer base.

This type of thing gets considered when companies make business decisions that run the risk of customer backlash. While this petition won't make them remove the DRM, it could affect future decisions, especially if they know just how many people feel strongly about it.



/sorry for feeding the troll
