My old e-reader had some problems and needed to be replaced. I ended up exploring the hell that is DRM (copy protection) on e-books and tried to break the restraints so I can read my own legally acquired books with FOSS software.

Un point sur le streaming
Une BD qui n'apprendra sans doute pas grand-chose au cœur techno-enthousiaste de mon lectorat. Mais si ça peut remettre quelques trucs au clair pour d'autres, c'est toujours ça de pris !Grise Bouille
