Free with Every Sony CD: Malware!
Maximum PC - January 2006
books.google.com/books?id=pwIA

Free with Every Sony CD: Malware! Sony distributes hundreds of CDs, by various artists, with digital rights management applied to the disc, to the horror of musicians and fans alike. The DRM installs a "rootkit" (a tool that installs itself in such a way that it's hidden from the OS) on Windows PCs. The rootkit makes any file prefixed with $sys$ completely invisible to your system — something hackers can easily exploit. Thomas Hesse, president of Sony BMG's Global Digital Business, responds to the furor with unassailable logic: "Most people, I think, don't even know what a rootkit is, so why should they care about it?" Mark Russinovich publishes evidence that Sony's DRM notifies the company each time the protected CD is played (www.sysinternals.com/blog/). Sony releases a patch that does not remove the rootkit, only the cloaking component. Facing mounting criticism and word that hackers were exploiting its rootkit software, Sony suspends use of the software until further notice, and recalls affected discs.
