Sony Games' BioShock Demo with Free Rootkit

This one goes to the dirty tricks department. After the rootkit brouhaha on their audio CDs, Sony is at it again. This time, they have sneaked a rootkit on the highly anticipated game BioShock as reported by GamingBob.

What's really creepy about this news report is that the rootkit looks legitimately from Sony and the "game" is actually just a demo -- A FRICKING DEMO!

Yet another reason why I shy away from non-hardware Sony products. :(
