|
|
|
|
"of" was a typo
|
|
|
|
Unbreakable would mean here that no one, even previously authorised entity,
|
|
could use the system without paying the periodic subscription fee.

|
|
It could be an online system that work 95% offline but poll frequently an
|
|
offsite server. No mass production CDs, maybe mass personalised d/l like Sun
|
|
JDK.
|
|
|
|
Nothing is fixed yet, we are looking at the way a software can be protected
|
|
from unauthorized utilisation.
|
|
|
|
Is the use of "trusted hardware" really worth it ? Does it really make it
|
|
more secure ? Look at the DVDs.
