GameSpy, Security, & the DMCA

A post to the SecurityFocus BUGTRAQ Mailing List outlines a conflict brewing between GameSpy's lawyers and a researcher who uncovered some bugs in GameSpy software (thanks Brown, Quboid, and Slashdot). According to the post, the researcher has received a cease and desist order over his work (which he says he made available to GameSpy before publishing it), saying he is in violation of the dreaded Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
