Sony DRM Rootkit Numbers Add Up to Trouble
Quinn Norton writes in Wired News:
More than half a million networks, including military and government sites, were likely infected by copy restriction software distributed by Sony on a handful of its CDs, according to a statistical analysis of domain servers conducted by a well-respected security researcher and confirmed by independent experts on Tuesday.
Sony BMG has been on the run for almost two weeks with the public relations debacle of its XCP copy restriction software, which has installed an exploit-vulnerable rootkit with at least 20 popular music titles on PCs all over the world.
