Right! In desire of brevity I've misused words. What I mean is

if all computer owners run a Free OS that _also_
allows memory inspection for any process (w/o it's permission!)
then DRM is bustered.

Got you.
Hope a discussion may stem in my new mail thread:

    "To Jonathan [backdoor]"

where I advocate the notion of a "backdoor" for computer
owner to inspect memory of any process.
