GPLv3's anti-DRM section solves an actual problem.

--- Quote --- GPLv3's anti-DRM provisions alone cannot stop TC.  Only you can do that, by refusing to purchase hardware which includes TC functionality.  But GPLv3 can help Free Software authors resist the TC and DRM system by refusing to be a part of it.  And together, we can build a world where everyone is truly free of DRM.  So, if you think that anti-DRM provisions aren't necessary, read up on Treacherous Computing.

Refalm:
Linux will support DRM and will continue to use GPL 2.

Dude... it's Sony... the people who  willfully infected thousands of computers with rootkits.... the people who put self-destruct sequences in the blu-ray player specs (note the PS3 has a blu-ray player).... the people who patented a method to make sure you could play a game on only the first console you play it on.....

Oh wait I get it... you are joking :)
