Disgusting. (Score 1)

I sent an email along to Mr. Zhidkov: "I recently picked up a used copy of "The Black Mirror", which was infuriatingly difficult to install thanks to your "StarForce" copy protection features. I acquired this game legitimately and found it very insulting having to prove I did so, as well as frustrating to wait 5+ minutes every time I started the game while your software verifed the integrity of THE ENTIRE GAME DISC. Now you're threatening to sue Cory Doctorow for letting the public know, rightly, the kind of damage your software can do? Your company is in the same dismal league as Sony (their rootkit was an abomination) and you should be ashamed of yourself for being so malicious toward Chris as the honest people who still have faith enough to BUY their copies of software instead of steal it. Do everyone a favor and find another line of business. Copy-protection simply makes life harder for honest folks. Pirates will always break it. Grow up." Jerk.
