Same here. I worked for a large public sector health company in Europe. After a few data breaches at Energy companies and Banks, it was a ticking timebomb for management. Every new laptop is encrypted being handed to the user and a big effort is underway to get the older ones. Old laptops which can't handle encryption are being replaced, all for 100,000+ employee organization.

Xbox DRM and the Red Ring of Death 147

Posted by Zonk from the bum-bum-bum dept.
manekineko2 writes "In the latest case warning of the perils of investing in DRM'd media, an owner of an Xbox 360 reports that after his Xbox suffered the infamous Red Ring of Death, it was replaced by a new system with a different serial number. Upon receiving his replacement, he found that he could only access the media he had purchased from a specific account. He also received the run-around for months from customer service before his case was escalated, only to be informed that there is no ETA for a resolution, there is no way to receive status updates on the process, and there is no compensation that will be granted. Given claims that the Xbox 360 defect rate is as high as 1 in 3, has anyone on Slashdot gone through this as well after getting their system exchanged?" Update: 02/14 17:11 GMT by Z : An emailing user noted that the original summary was not very accurate; rephrased to be more in-line with the situation.

The rule on staying alive as a program manager is to give 'em a number or give 'em a date, but never give 'em both at once.
