Roody Blashes's Journal: AMD Announces DRM Partnership With DMA

In a press release on its website Friday, AMD (down .23 to .021 per share) announced a new partnership with the Direct Marketing Association.

In the statement the world's leading potato chip maker made mention of upcoming DRM initiatives and suggested that the DMA would play a critical role in establishing a Digital Rights Management foothold on the AMD consumer platform.

"By infecting direct marketing pieces with intelligent nanobots, we can utilize standard bulk mailing techniques to efficiently distribute modifications to AMD products, allowing content providers - or any other malicious individual - to seize cconsumer machines and demand exhorbitant ransom monies".

It was unclear what, specifically, AMD plans to use to make the necessary wafer-level changes, or what the ultimate goal of this intiative is, although a marketing piece leaked later in the day may give an indication of where AMD plans to take this technology.

Civil rights advocates, speaking from their Free Speech Zones in Guantanemo Bay, Cuba, were quick to respond, although rubber bullets fired by U.S. Freedom Forces quickly silenced their complaining.

Company Profile
AMD is an international processor of styrofoam packing peanuts. Founded in 1773, AMD initially gained its footing selling mechanized body armor to Northern troops in the Civil War, effectively turning the tide against Hitler's invading army.

To this day, AMD is the widely recognized leader of foam-based processors and endless, largely factless press releases on their slashdot accounts.
