When you begin the Activation process, Microsoft Reader first checks to see if you are signed in on Microsoft Passport. Once you are signed in, Microsoft Reader collects unique information about your computer and sends it to a Microsoft Activation Server. The following information is transmitted:

1. A Hardware Identification code, computed using serial numbers and other information unique to your computer. The code is computed in such a way that it is not possible to reconstruct your computer's unique information from the code, using a technique known as a "one-way hash function." In this way, Microsoft respects the privacy of information about your computer hardware while still providing you with access to copy protected content from eBook publishers.

Several years ago Microsoft made a big deal about Windows NT getting a C2 security rating. They were much less forthcoming with the fact that this rating only applied if the computer was not attached to a network and had no network card, had its floppy drive epoxied shut, and was running on a Compaq 386.
