because it was old hat the minute you checked. When rotten.com and 20 new orgs have covered something to death, it's kinda hard to get the spin on somehting.
the daunting task is creating such a foolproof system. There hasn't been an effective DRM solution on a mass scale like this before, and this one would have to be right the first time, and 100% secure. unpossible

That occurred at a Fujitsu plant I worked at, as well, until they realized that it was costing too much time to check bags, and people could easily put the pieces under their clothing, hats, or electronic encrypted transfer elsewhere.
Needless to say the plant is closed now and they did cease the checks long before it did so.
uhhhh so you cancelled your account with your cable provider and dialed in via your backup ISP to let us know this? Gee... we feel honored you went through the effort but the rest of us will keep our net connections--however related they may be to a life-critical online game that rules the world.
In business/marketing school they teach about how a customer's perceived image of a company is one of the most important facets in repeat, ongoing relationships.
Blizzard found the easiest way to ensure that people that buy their games only receive the content that Blizzard sells, and the image Blizzard wants is their own. It's a great short term strategy but probably negative on keeping a long term relationship with enthusiasts.

More important... WHat isn't breakable now, may be tomorrow. So while you may be "secure" in the knowledge that what you transmit today is indeed not being read, tomorrow there may be a crack and all that data is cach'd n compromis'd...

Yes... we keep excellent records. Were we to be audited, I could say with 100% certainty that we are 100% compliant. We keep track of all software before and after it is purchased. Users do not have permissions to load software on their own machines, from partners down to clerks.
Games are not allowed on the network not because they screw with company time, but because in most cases we don't have the accompanying license to ensure it's legal.
User's home machines that connect to our network are under a policy that states that we have not supplied them with any unlicensed software.
Yes we pay for the closed-source software.
No we don't spend a lot of money. We skip lots of versions and upgrade for truly functional reasons.
We are evaluating open source software--as the MS "upgrade advantage" is not a route we want to be going.
Then we wiped off the software from machines, rather than purchasing the licenses. (we had expanded greatly over the past year, and chose not to buy the software until we were certain when we would stop hiring.) We now load on Terminal Services, and skirt the licencing altogether. If the license specifies that we must pay for each machine accessing the software, we toss it.
We can't afford the software. As a law firm, it's also our responsibility, but they can't expect us to give away 30K a year of our revenue to software vendors...
Yeah, we're looking at Linux... If only our clients would
This just happened to me. Last month Oregon looked up my New Jersey's records and noticed I had three tickets within two years (ten year ago).
Bad under both states (for different reasons,) and the Oregon DMV said to me (in a form letter,) clear it up with the NJ DMV or you may GO TO JAIL if you are ever pulled over for an infraction.
I paid the NJDMV a $50 fee and am no longer driving until I hear back from them.
so yeah, don't think you're out of the water yet...
And that would work. It's similar to the model of paying $.50 for a daily newspaper. Everyone knows you can just grab every copy in the cart, but [most] people are honoest enough to close the rack and let the next person pay.
The problem is they entered the market way way too late. 1999 with this model and people would be hip to it. Now, it's out of control.
how about kill two birds with one stone and migrate TLD's to synchronize with content ratings? Just add a.kid.xxx etc for the appropriate content, and move those two areas away from.com?
If you use windows, slack space, temp files, etc. They can 99% of the time recover your "Safe" data.
Trust me on this. Just went to a lecture for litigators for Corporate IP cases where IP was stolen, and they state they can recover data past the DoD 7 wipes, at a cost of 1 million. Likely not your case, but if they want it, they can likely get it.
Unless you are wiping free space on your disk over 7 times after every "confidential" message, discovery teams using tools like safeback can get to it.

Take that with an obvious grain of salt.

Can you tell what kind of company we are?
An intellectual property/patent law firm.

yeah... you can't even cancel the extra IP addresses that you used to use under @home... and they don't work with the new Network!
@home Service just went out at 12:00 PST. I released my IP, renewed, and I'm now on AT&T's network.

dns resolves to attbi.com
Entirely different subnets. (obviously)
Took about 50 minutes
Some sites don't load. Or is the shack just down right now?
Seems quick, but probably because people haven't released and renewed yet in my neighborhood.
