Ed Hansberry Contributing Editor Emeritus Join Date: Aug 2006 Posts: 8,228		Legal Analysis Of The Sony RootKit Scheme http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1072229 "Late in 2005, Sony BMG released millions of Compact Discs containing digital rights management technologies that threatened the security of its customers' computers and the integrity of the information infrastructure more broadly. This Article aims to identify the market, technological, and legal factors that appear to have led a presumably rational actor toward a strategy that in retrospect appears obviously and fundamentally misguided." For those interested in a very thorough legal analysis on the Sony Rootkit incident in late 2005 check out the article entitled The Magnificence of the Disaster: Reconstructing the Sony BMG Rootkit Incident at the Social Science Research Network page. It is a 75 page PDF paper and the download link can be found at the bottom of the page. __________________ text sig
