Yea, let me tell you, the same fags SHARING MY VIEW of the rootkit saga (As I sit here staring at about ten dead optical drives, all fucked by Sony's DRM) are the same fucks THAT WROTE THIS SHIT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
The only reason they share my view is that they regret ever being involved. Nope, FUCK THEM. They should've known what they were told to do was wrong, and come up with some technical reason why it could not be done.
No, the second they wrote that shit (much like SecuROM) to overwrite drive firmware and cripple the drive, they were fucking complicit.
That's the whole rootkit nonsense in a nutshell.
