I'm organizing a protest against Blizzard's decision not to include
LAN support in Starcraft 2. LAN play is what made their previous
games so great and requiring everyone to authenticate to Battle.net is
clearly a use of DRM and sends a message to fans that they think we're
criminals. My copy of Warcraft III and Starcraft: Broodwar is legit,
there is indeed piracy, but legit players should never be punished for
the actions of a few bad apples. To top it off Blizzard insults our
intelligence by saying that leaving it out is an improvement of the
game. Myself and millions of other fans don't see it that way.

In protest of this send a small inexpensive CAT5 cable and a message
to Blizzard Entertainment.

Their address:

Blizzard Entertainment
P.O. Box 18979
Irvine, CA 92623

This sort of protest worked before to get Jericho back on the air at
CBS, and there is no reason why it won't work here. Let them know you
don't like the decision and won't buy the game until LAN support has
been added. Let your voice be heard and stand up to this kind of
corporate greed.
