The importance of allowing tinkering
January 08, 2006 ( geek )
It's stories like this, of a deaf geek hacking his cochlear implants to enjoy music again that not only warms my heart, but underlines the importance of fighting against laws like the DMCA (which he violated) and DRM-like protection. If this had been most normal situations of a hacker tinkering with a device, he would be liable for lawsuits left and right.
