1. Comment - Sony to Help Remove its DRM Rootkit

   (Nov 3, 2005 - 10:17 PM)

   Has anybody out there actually read this article? It appears not even the headline writer did when he wrote: "Sony to Help Remove its DRM Rootkit." Yet at the end of the article it says: "The DRM software will not be removed, however, only uncovered; that means users will still be unable to delete it without risk of rendering their CD drive inoperable." This is not a useable patch nor does it remove anything people! Their actions are outrageous; I NEVER go back to companies who have done me wrong unless they can step up and admit an honest mistake (we all make them) and do what's necessary to make it right. I'm a retired IBM Systems Engineer. IBM wasn't immune to screwups but they would stand on their head (sometimes mine) to make it right. This was a very dishonest mistake by sony and they're only digging in deeper. They're on my personal boycott list forever.
