Well, CS groups have tried to refill the word "rights" with its original
meaning for a while. European Digital Rights (EDRi.org) has quite 
successfully worked with this re-framing. Many of us only speak of 
"digital restriction management" when talking about DRM, while reserving 
"rights" for human rights.

Best, Ralf
