Blu-ray BD+ Cracked

Posted by kdawson on from the bigger-they-come dept.

An anonymous reader writes "In July 2007, Richard Doherty of the Envisioneering Group (BD+ Standards Board) declared: 'BD+, unlike AACS which suffered a partial hack last year, won't likely be breached for 10 years.' Only eight months have passed since that bold statement, and Slysoft has done it again. According to the press release, the latest version of their flagship product AnyDVD HD can automatically remove BD+ protection and allows you to back-up any Blu-ray title on the market."

    From a NY Times article: "Al Qaeda and its supporters have issued several threats against the pope since he quoted a medieval Byzantine emperor in a speech in Germany two years ago referring to Islam as "evil and inhuman." The pope apologized for the anger caused by the speech, saying that the view expressed in the quotation was not his own."

    Hmmm, the Pope recites some obscure quote which calls Islam evil and inhuman, and Muslims respond by threatening more evil and inhumanity. "Don't call us violent or we'll blow you up!" What a bunch of ignorant apes. Does anyone deserve to be erased from humanity more than them? BTW, it's so nice of Muslims to insist that we tolerate their arcane beliefs when they live among us, but just try and see what happens to you when you live among them and try to practice your progressive beliefs...

    When will people learn that making bold statements about their technology's security will only make them look like a fool when it is finally broken?

    Kinda like Bush and the propagandist "Mission Accomplished" speech on the Iraq war 5 years ago?

    Republicans are full of statements like that: 'no new taxes', 'mission accomplished', 'we had no knowledge of arms for hostages', 'the Taliban are good religious people fighting against the godless soviets' ...

    When will you learn that the question mark is not supposed to be bold?

    Yeah, I made that up.
