Microsoft Reader Format Cracked

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the countdown-to-arrest-started dept.

Anonymous Coward writes "Pocket PC Addict has a cool story about how some guy named Dan Jackson is distributing an unfortunately named program that will remove the security from Microsoft Reader ebooks. Once the security is removed, it then allows the book to be converted to html, text or any other format."

    It's extremely cool when someone VIOLATES the DMCA and could have potentially ruined their livelihood and end up in jail. Personally I don't understand how someone would be stupid enough to crack a program and release it non-anonymously. The way the laws are now, it's safer for someone to rape a 5-year-old boy and admit it then to crack a program.
