STALKER publishers declare war!

Received information about unfinished, which for some hunters for hot new items, it may be fatal.

So, the scene: Yekaterinburg.
Starting date: 18.03.2007.
The starting point is here and especially here and here .


Quote of a couple of posts of a certain person not from urban networks:
Hmm, Dmitry. Not good at it. Whole 4 hours.
Moreover, an attempt to change the program code by cracking StarForce protection.
ZY: Doubtful respect for Stanislav turned out.

Citizen ZKV (Konstantin Valerievich Zvonarev), who posted information about the game and a photo disk on OVERKLOKERS.RU, today spent an unforgettable day in the police department of the Sverdlovsk region.
In the previous message I warned you. Two people listened and erased their messages.

You, Igor Olegovich, do you want to argue? In the police department and argue. They love it there.

It would seem that someone had gathered information and decided to joke, if it were not for one thing, but forumtsy, with whom the person answers, did not publish their data in open sources.

They would have talked about it and forgotten if the authors of the announcements of STALKER didn’t hear calls from representatives of the authorities on the forum the next day, who urged them to send a formal agenda and give them 15 days, would recommend to come to the Department of Internal Affairs of the Department of Internal Affairs. At the interview , users asked where the game came from, when, how, and related questions were asked.

As I learned from a source who wished to remain anonymous, the legs of the story grow from the notorious 1C company, which sent a shooter to print at one of the Yekaterinburg factories, from which a copy of the disc with STALKER was leaked. One should not even say that it fell into the hands of pirates, which probably already caused a very considerable damage to the publisher and the reputation of the plant, which is actually a fighter for the legality of replicated content.

In this situation, I was surprised not so much by the fact of the leak as by the disclosure, probably by the authorities, the users' data and their publication in the public domain.

I only allow quoting with the condition of placing the active hyperlink to this topic as a source.
