HD-DVD Encryption cracked

**kshcshbash** · May 06, 2007, 10:07 AM

I'd like to request that nobody posts the hex code to do with HD-DVD encryption being cracked. It is certainly not worth risking getting Ian into any trouble, though he would likely just get a cease and desist letter, and it is all over the internet.

Nonetheless, keep it quiet until it has been explicitly been permitted.

Just a friendly tip from your mate kshcshbash.

I would agree but can Advanced Access Content System (AACS) sue nearly all 700,000 website pages they say they found had posted it on there sites like Digg, Slashdot for example and on BBC this morning as part on the Click Technology program this morning which is shown national

Well, as true as that may be, it is still Ian's decision.

Wow, HD-DVD encryption (like everything else copyright related) has been cracked?
Why am I not surprised?

I knew it,

Sooner or later someone will crack it, it's just a matter of time.

Didn't this happen back in December?

Yes by using software to "back it up" but this code gives you the same as before without need for 3rd party software. I don't why bother to spend thousands of pounds on security when you know in time somebody will hack it . for example Windows Vista
