So, if you have been living under a rock some place, then you missed the f*ck-ups to end all f*ck-ups (so far) in the war against piracy. Sony totally pooched themselves this time and it is only a matter of time before some lawyer ponies up to the saddle and launches the lawsuit that will change the industry.
If Sony had disclosed the program, maybe it would not be so bad. If Sony had properly checked the software, it would not have been distributed in the present form. If Sony executives had a clue, they would not have okayed this in the first place. Of course, if you have ever bought a Sony product, you would know that they tend to march to their own tune, regardless of the effects (see Betamax, Memory Sticks and MircoMV amongst other examples).
All I can say is, it's about time these guys got slapped around for a change. Watch the fit as it hits the shan in this one.
Ciao.
