A Princeton University student is being sued over this paper he wrote.

It details the flaws of cd protection systems used to keep cd owners from ripping the music onto their computer.

The people who make it claim they've lost millions in market value because of the paper and claim it's an infringment of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Rock on Alex Halderman, rock on.

Excellent, yes.

I really don't care for how bitchy the RIAA is.

Thats fun. They probably spent millions of dollars developing the program, and it can all be undone with one key. That's hilarious. It's their fault for making sucky programs.
