That was over 8 years ago. Along with Sony's (Music division only) CD rootkit scandal was over 18 years ago now that people often like to bring up.
8 years seems a short time to go, "eh, I guess they won't do it again"
So does 18 years, for that matter, but I suppose more people have changed at the company in that time. I haven't heard about the CD rootkit scandal; what was that?!
Sony's music CDs would install a rootkit so the music couldn't be copied
Wow, that's awful!
Microsoft’s anti-trust situation was nearly 22 years ago.
