I didn't really read ALL the above, but a recent article I read from google had a quote from the Bush administration. Saying that the content may be sony's, but the computers are NOT.
I can see how sony's rootkit could be dangerous as far as "national security" Wouldn't that be lovely if a high level government official throws a cd in and more than song information is transmitted.
But sony, I imagine, would have to pay for any damages done to computers because of their 'software'... So unless it says on the package that they are not responsible, they opened up a hole for themselves also.
Anway.. More current stuff can be found at.
