Seems Sony has been adding some backdoor spyware to their DRM. Seems that they are taking the mantle of evil away from M$

They're getting their ass sued - and rightly so. Virus writers get thrown in jail - and thus so should they.
Very bad move from them.
No record company can combat piracy. It's simply impossible.

World Of Warcraft have a spyware installing itself too...but the fuzz about it was nothing compared to this.. Maybe because all the geek critics that should write baout it , play it and down want their account deleted

yeah, tell me something i don't know.
sony products are overpriced and are considered useless months after purchase.
not to say i don't own any sony products, but after i wasted my money on one of their netMD's i saw the light!

Yeah the WoW thing claims to only monitor your system for hacks, and their model is built on the one used in EverQuest, which is surprise surprise SONY!!
At least the Sony thing and the WoW spywares don't work on Macs!!
Sony is evil!

welcome to two weeks ago.
you can actually use to sony rootkit to hack the WoW spyware program that looks for hacks. read sony's EULA on their CDs it's even more ridiculous than the rootkit.

-------------------2 weeks ago? Actually the report that the DRM was using a backdoor hack just came out on the 10th, unless you have a different source.
