A foolish company

StarForce, which produces bad DRM software for games, has threatened to sue Cory Doctorow for criticizing its products.

Here is what I wrote to the company PR manager:

To: denis.zhidkov@star-force.com

Dear Mr. Zhidkov:

Threatening Cory Doctorow with baseless legal action is a prime example of harassment. Criticizing bad software on a Web site devoted to digital issues is what we in this country call free speech.

Before proceeding or threatening people who know the law and technology better than yourself, I suggest you hire better engineers and better lawyers. You are clearly overmatched here.

Sincerely,

Siva
