Should we rename DRM?

InfoWorld: Microsoft sets sights on DRM market: May 08, 2003: By Scarlet Pruitt: Security
Phil and I have been discussing the name, "DRM" -- mostly because the term is so tainted already, that it is essentially negative.

We're working on a newer terminology. One possibility DPT - Data Protection Technology. That would encompass DRM, "trusted" computing, document protection, etc.
