Sony even gives those users like me that are aware of the “uninstaller” several hurdles to jump over. The fact that Sony’s announcement was directed at the press and that they’ve made no effort to make contact with their customers makes the patch and uninstall look solely like a public relations gesture for the media. There’s no information on this story anywhere on the front page, no support link, and the FAQ only contains information about Sony’s merger with BMG. What if a user somehow discovers the hidden files, makes the connection between files and the Sony CD that installed them, and visits Sony BMG’s site in search of uninstall or support information? Or what about the unsuspecting Sony DRM user that happens to visit the Sony BMG site to look at their other offerings? Will these customers learn about the patch and uninstaller?Īnd search for the support site Sony has made available to the press.

Further, the software installation does not include support information and lacks a registration option, making it impossible for users to contact Sony and Sony to contact its users. The End User License Agreement (EULA) does not provide any details on the software or its cloaking. The uninstall process Sony has put in place is on par with mainstream spyware and adware and is the topic of this blog post.Īs I’ve stated several times already, Sony’s rootkit hides the Digital Rights Management (DRM) files from users that have it installed, so users not monitoring the developments in this story are unaware of the scope and intrusiveness of the DRM. That it was making available a decloaking patch and uninstall capability through its support site.
