we have no idea how this locking software that made the trains stop unless they were serviced by our company was added to the trains' systems ... a software problem, no way to say what happened ... :-)

If you're wondering how things are going with the famous #DRM'd Polish trains, well, their manufacturer – #Newag – sued the hackers who had un-blocked them:

But weirdly, after months of implying and suggesting that the locking code was added to the software by the hackers themselves, in the lawsuit the company now insists they did not in fact modify the software installed on the trains.
Why? Because that would not mesh well with the copyright infringement claim. 🤡
