I disagree

I thoroughly disagree, how would one even phrase and enforce this law? Don't give legal support for DRM, but don't outlaw it either. Trying to legislate what technology is allowed and not, whether you are on the pro- or anti-consumer side will always end up a race you can't really win, and will create a mish-mash of laws that hardly anyone can navigate.

The law already ensures that Microsoft has to be clear about what they are selling, and that law should be enforced, but it is really none of your business if Microsoft sells activation codes and people who are properly informed are willing to buy them.
