More on Sony's "DRM Rootkit"

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the to-much-to-believe dept.

A couple of days ago we posted a story about Sony DRM installing a rootkit. Since then we have seen many more stories on the subject that I thought were worth sharing. manno gave us a link to the inquirer and salemnic sent us a page from the washington post. smallfries gave us one from PC Pro. It's nice to see this story not getting lost in the cracks since the implications are gigantic.

    this EULA was MODIFIED after the story has surfaced - so if you are going to claim reading the documents - at least try to get the right ones.

    Well, the research that we were able to do came from a site that has been highly regarded as one of the most well researched and documented about this issue. If their copy of the EULA is what we have displayed, then I would father that it's the "correct" copy. Perhaps Mark Russinovich isn't really the guru and expert on this issue that Slashdot and multiple posters claim he is?

    Thanks for proving my point.
