I had to read the whole article to really believe to what extent Sony would go to protect one damn CD, but this software they install, with no prompting, no EULA acceptance, nothing, uses the same technology rootkits use to hide their existance on your system. Amazing. Read the whole thing, from Sysinternals.
Dude, your auth system is screwed. I’m very sad. I just spent 10 minutes typing in agreat comment and hit send and it didn’t accept my verification code… used the back button… comment GONE… not very happy.
