Hackers use Sony “rootkit” to crack World of Warcraft

Irony == using Sony’s music DRM solution to defeat Blizzard’s anti-hack system, dubbed “the Warden.” Moral of the story: assume that your online games will be hacked. Use your players to identify and fight hackers. Work hard to generate good-will in the gaming community in general. Pure engineering solutions will never be enough – this is also a business problem.
