Pirates Finding It Harder To Crack New PC Games (engadget.com)
schnell writes: Engadget reports that a few recent top-tier video game releases using updated DRM technology have gone uncracked for more than a month and left DRM hackers stymied thus far. The games FIFA 16 and Just Cause 3, using an updated DRM system called Denuvo, have thus far frustrated experienced Chinese crackers' best efforts far longer than the usual 1-2 weeks it takes for most games to be cracked. Although the article is light on technical details about what makes the new DRM system harder to defeat, it does note that "Based on the current pace of encryption tech, 'in two years time I'm afraid there will be no free games to play in the world,' said one forlorn pirate."
Shorts are like long pants. You put them on in a similar fashion.
Privately, of course.
Yes, the article is having a dig at Chinese people. The inclusion of "Chinese crackers" was wholly gratuitous, as crackers are an international team, and the best game crackers are still from the US.
Fuck you, racist submitter.
Besides which "cracker" is a racist name for caucasians not asians.
