AACS Revision Cracked A Week Before Release 346
stevedcc writes "Ars Technica is running a story about next week's release of AACS, which is intended to fix the currently compromised version. The only problem is, the patched version has already been cracked. From the article: 'AACS LA's attempts to stifle dissemination of AACS keys and prevent hackers from compromising new keys are obviously meeting with extremely limited success. The hacker collective continues to adapt to AACS revisions and is demonstrating a capacity to assimilate new volume keys at a rate which truly reveals the futility of resistance. If keys can be compromised before HD DVDs bearing those keys are even released into the wild, one has to question the viability of the entire key revocation model.'"

Yeah, I thought that was a pretty reasonable response, until Apple told me to think different. Now I can't go back to thinking the old way! I think my mind is broken.

Actually I just have a gripe with people whose greatest achievement in life is burning a goddamned DVD. I call that a waste of carbon.
