I fail to see how something like this truely keeps information locked up.

Well, the system isn't perfect control -- no. It won't stop really motivated people from using a digital camera or just copying the text or whatever. It will, however, prevent collaboration with people using platforms other than Windows/MS Office, which should (IMHO) be a major point of concern for Linux users.
