Everyone 'one' person from these forums tells 'five' friends about the intrusive Starforce Protection! Every one of those 'five' tells another 'five' of their friends and so on and so on! It will take time but it can happen?
I once read somewhere on these forums that quite obviously the protection makers do scan forums like these! They will see that people dont like the idea of the protection being so intrusive! But still they will not change what they are doing!
But, just like everything these days, someone will take this whole intrusive idea into a court room! Then you may see some sort of change?
The change has to start somewhere, one voice needs to grow into two, the two into four and from there it just keeps growing untill those voices together become very loud!
Surely as many more people, (even the ones who know nothing about protections etc) will start experiencing problems with their computers thru Starforce. They may not know at the time what is the cause of the problems!
But they to will either go to the place of purchase or even search the internet and they will be told or discover it is actually Starforce which is causing them all the troubles!
Then slowly, but surely, there will be many more people boycotting Starforce games!
It may take 1 year it may take 5 years, it may be quicker it may longer? But it will happen! Many more will join the idea of either boycotting Starforce games or those people will just go and buy a console machine!
Lets band together and turn this thread into a thread which has the 180 000 views! Even better let this thread grow into one which reaches 1 million views! Then and only then may we see some sort of protection that will do what it is meant to do and that is to protect the game! Not invade our systems and be destructive! That in my opinion borders on being a virus!!
