Thrax
🐌Austin, TX Icrontian
From the Department of Expected Events comes news that the AACS Licensing Authority's newest key to encrypt HD-DVD and Blu-Ray content has been cracked by an individual known as "BtCB." Courteously dropped on the doorstep of the Freedom to Tinker website, the cracked key represents the ongoing war between copyright holders and creative software crackers.
Recently, AACS keys have kicked up a storm of controversy, particularly on DIGG, where one of the first AACS keys released to the public was modded out of existence by Digg's powers that be. Users revolted en masse, bombarding the website with new links containing the key, filling up the front page and thousands of comments with the key. The result? The most popular topics in digg history, and what can be considered the first true, internet revolt.
Can't stop the signal.
