While I don't doubt your intentions are good, the way in which most people seem to be going about this, the proposed "solution" sounds to me like a bigger threat then the underlying problem.  You don't cure the disease by killing the patient.  All I see is an angry, ignorant lynch-mob with their pitchforks and torches threatening to burn down the whole village to "fix" things.  If people burn this thing to the ground, there will be nothing left worth having.



That's just it.  Nothing I've seen so far even remotely resembles a fix.  Just clumsy hacks that won't prevent someone determined to embed data and could have long-term unintended consequences.  I don't think farcical games of 'whack-a-mole' are the way forward and that's all I've seen proposed so far.
