          How do you sue somebody anonymous?

              Oh, that’s easy. You have one of your rent-a-cops grab a random dude off the street, beat a confession out of him, and then sue that guy.

                I probably shouldn’t comment as I haven’t read the article (SHAME) but my assumption is this is the first step to compel platforms the cracker may have used to providing identifiable information on them.

                how do you even sue someone that’s anonymous.

                    By using the law to circumvent the privacy of the account holder.

                    Just a question, but how easy is it nowadays to bypass Denuvo using LLM?

                        Just tell the courts AI was used to crack the denuvo and AI being able to do that isn’t copyright infringement. 😏

                        If they went straight to legal it means they legit don’t know how to stop it. That’s pretty damning for them.

                        First step would be to analyze the hack and the patch it so that the bypasses no longer work. I’m guessing the hack exposes a serious flaw.

                            They could be working on both, but it’s a seriously bad look anyway. Companies should switch off autopilot mode and stop using Denuvo.

                              the company claims that the accused bypassed its Anti-Tamper technology in at least 26 PC games and is seeking monetary damages as well as a court order that would prevent further tampering of its DRM

                              Considering that the main product they shill obviously doesn’t work, I wouldn’t keep my hope up on them figuring anything out

                                  Standard corporate America right there. You proved our product is a sham and worthless? How dare you we’ll sue you out of existence!

                                  God forbid they step back and rethink their product.

                                      Denuvo is an Austrian company, not American.

                                      This isn’t about American corporate culture. It’s a capitalist culture.

                                Rules

                                This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

                                2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

                                No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

                                We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

                                3. No excessive self-promotion

                                Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

                                This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

                                We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
