Microsoft filed suit against the author of "FairUse 4 WM"



I took up earlier.Free software to remove Windows Media DRM "FairUse 4WM"Apparently, it seems that Microsoft will make a lawsuit against the author.

Details are as follows.Microsoft Sues Hacker - International Business Times -

According to this article it is a copyright protection function developed by MicrosoftWindows Media DRMRemoving "FairUse 4 WM" has been released for a month, Microsoft seems to have continued to distribute the corresponding patch, but as the author of "FairUse 4 WM" kept releasing the patch that avoids the fix in the same way It was said that it was water to the rocks.

Because patches to avoid fixes are released too quickly, Microsoft seems to have filed a lawsuit after considering that the author of "FairUse 4 WM" is a person who can access the source code of DRM itself.

On the other hand, the author of "FairUse4WM" seems to have stopped publishing the version that prevented the modification after assuming that its own software does not use the source code of Microsoft protected by any copyright.
