Sony bites; boycott Sony

Posted: Saturday, November 12, 2005 | |

With all the bad publicity they have getting for their copyrighted CDs cum malware provider, Sony said they will "temporarily suspend" the production of the CDs that contained a copyrighting software, XCP, that makes the PC vulnerable to hacking. It turns out that some Sony BMG CDs can install a pair of extensions into the Mac microkernel.

People have called for a boycott on all Sony products because of Sony advocating the use of malware to advance a company's interest.

The Great Lemming has predicted that this controversy will mean bankruptcy for Sony.
