 110                 Are you giving your loved ones holiday gifts they can
 111                 use freely, or gifts which put someone else in
 112                 control?
 113               </h2>
 114
 115               <p>
 116                 Electronics are popular gifts for the holidays, but
 117                 people often overlook the restrictions that
 118                 manufacturers slip under the wrapping paper. Companies
 119                 like Microsoft and Apple can and will use Digital
 120                 Restrictions Management (DRM) to
 121                 prevent your loved ones from sharing apps on the
 122                 laptop you got them or remixing the songs on their
 123                 expensive new iPad. If the recipient of your gift
 124                 is as unlucky as one woman last year,
 125
 126                 <a href="http://www.defectivebydesign.org/node/2250">
 127                   Amazon might even block all the books on their
 128                   Kindle and refuse to explain why
 129                 </a>.
 130
 131                 Companies want us to accept this kind of intrusive
 132                 control, but when you think about, it's unethical
 133                 (and annoying!).

 138               <p>
 139                 The good news is, for every device that uses DRM or
 140                 has a remote "kill switch" like the Kindle, ethical
 141                 companies have made a better one that doesn't, one
 142                 that your loved ones will be free to enjoy however
 143                 they wish. Here's a list of these smarter gifts,
 144                 compared with their more well-known, but more
 145                 restrictive alternatives. While you're reading, please
 146                 remember that donating to a charity in your friend or
 147                 family member's name is at least as meaningful as
 148                 buying them an electronic device. Some of our favorite
