> the Russians were offering the hacking software for sale on a Web

> make great leaps, asking that content be removed from
> advertisements. And though the request was successful, the situation
> proved how fallible, or at least, how subjective digital rights
> protection could be for--not only publishers--but also technology
> providers.
