Honest question. Does Sony do the same when someone accidentally uses their licensed material?


In lieu of blogging about it? Yeah, yeah they do.


Yeah, they stick to less serious steps such as lawsuits and rootkits instead of something this egregious.


Obviously not "less serious," although certainly more to the point. We can go with "less passive aggressive."

The usual corporate response is to send a letter telling the offender to stop.
