Ubisoft's new DRM hates you.

[Dr. Boogie]

I think "sinking". If they back off as a response to attacks like this, then it makes such actions seem not only credible, but effective. No, I think they'll just continue down this road, spending countless resources to combat pirates, only to fail and drive their customers further away. I suspect each new incarnation will be worse than the last, until they finally shut down their PC development outright.

I haven't bought a PC title of theirs since the heinously buggy Splinter Cell: Double Agent. Personally, I'd be willing to sacrifice their mediocre IPs if their failure would serve as a warning to other companies that draconian DRM measures are a bad idea.

You mean that it might get so bad that Ubisoft would have to remove the DRM altogether?
But that would mean legitimate customers would no longer be kicked in the balls, and pirates would... well pirates wouldn't notice a thing, would they?

I'm sure you're right though. They will continue until the bitter end.
And I really hope you're right about the warning to other companies that better ways exist to combat piracy.
