Several of the servers where I work have multiple monitors. While it is rare that I have several instances of the same application being displayed on these monitors, I do, at times, do just that. Easier for cutting and pasting large blocks from one to the other as well as other editing of code. So, when the software police pull up outside of my place of business see that there are six instances of a program being displayed with one license I can expect a warrant to be issued? That would suck. Unfortunatley, I do not have the time to read through the entire document at the URL provided, and can't save it either from the .pdf ... the defensive measures sound interesting. Also, does this only work with CRTs or can it detect LCD too? Furthermore, it was written:
So Markus and I sat down and tried to figure out what we could do for the Evil Empire. We concluded that
(1) large companies generally pay for their software;
(2) if you try to coerce private individuals, the political backlash would be too much; so (3) if the Evil Empire is to increase its revenue by cracking down on piracy, the people to go after are medium sized companies.
I have worked on contract with several 'large' companies who are running illegal copies of software, often without the knowledge of the sys admin...better check those 'findings.' Scott R. Brower http://www.infowar.com http://www.efflorida.org
