If you buy the US version of Adobe software then using it in another region is not allowed in their EULA. So it's almost the same as torrenting it except you paid for it. After a quick look I found these in their EULA: "Adobe grants Custome

Just fixing the driver doesn't seems a safe solution, because then malwares still can do the same to brick the hardware, isn't? Sure nowadays most malwares don't want to brick your hardware because ads are more profitable but it can still h

I agree, the big hype is paying off for them because many people looking into their code for free just to show how wrong they are but at the end they can fix these and then the criticism will not be true anymore. After the community "fixed"

"In today’s climate of cell phone contacts, Facebook and LinkedIn, business cards may be becoming a thing of the past." Is this true? If you meet a stranger do you start to type his name right in to your phone? It seems simpler to accept
