45 | <h2>Are you giving your loved ones holiday gifts they can use freely, or |
46 | gifts which put someone else in control?</h2> | |

49 | Electronics are popular gifts for the holidays, but people often overlook |
50 | the restrictions that manufacturers slip under the wrapping paper. | |
51 | Companies like Microsoft and Apple can and will use Digital | |
52 | Restrictions Management (DRM) to prevent your loved ones from | |
53 | sharing apps on the laptop you got them or remixing the songs on | |
54 | their expensive new iPad. If the recipient of your gift is as | |
55 | unlucky as one woman last year, | |
56 | <a href="http://www.defectivebydesign.org/node/2250"> | |
57 | Amazon might even block all the books on their Kindle and refuse to explain why</a>. | |
58 | Companies want us to accept this kind of intrusive control, | |
59 | but when you think about, it's unethical (and annoying!). | |

65 | The good news is, for every device that uses DRM or has a remote |
66 | "kill switch" like the Kindle, ethical companies have made a better | |
67 | one that doesn't, one that your loved ones will be free to enjoy however | |
68 | they wish. Here's a list of these smarter gifts, compared with their | |
69 | more well-known, but more restrictive alternatives. While you're | |
70 | reading, please remember that donating to a charity in your friend | |
71 | or family member's name is at least as meaningful as buying them | |
72 | an electronic device. Some of our favorite charities are the | |

98 | To make a really big splash, get some friends together, print the PDF |
99 | version of the Giving Guide and hand it out near a local store that | |
100 | sells DRM-encumbered products. Be sure to take photos! Send us photos | |
101 | and any questions at <a href="mailto:campaigns@fsf.org">campaigns@fsf.org</a>. | |
