even the pirated version has exclusive content.
Friend told me about this yesterday and I dug up this link on google prior to the media posting articles: http://www.herdprotect.com/winlogin.exe-e334340af3765aa58c71b34c82df6dacb49d10f7.aspx
Not much history beyond that entry (or I'm looking in the wrong places). Besides, this news is a fair warning to people who blindly download executables and run them without precautions.
Its not a rumor if it actually happened I guess you mean that it is a rumor that Skidrow put it in there, that i agree is false.This is only a rumor. Apparently some people downloaded the torrent from the wrong source.It's all their own fault if they don't know how internet works.

done........still curious how it's not ironic lol
that's funny lol
....also, suuuper ironic that my first official post on the gaf is about something pirated, considering i quit that stuff a couple years back lol

Haha yes! That exclusive doge_coin mining edition.even the pirated version has exclusive content.
It's unclear to others how your posting about "something pirated" and your stopping piracy a couple of years back is ironic. If you make a positive assertion, and someone asks you to explain it, answering "how is it not?" doesn't do anything.
Well, this is about as meta as it gets.
This would be true if true. But I don't really trust 4chan posts. There needs to be more evidence to it.

Turns out Ubisoft is behind it to make some money back from the pirates.
Brilliant
Someone please photoshop and add it to this list
So years back you stopped pirating and now your first comment on GAF (note: not 'the gaf') happens to be a in a thread about piracy; there's nothing ironic about that. Even if you decided to stop pirating 5mins before opening this thread it would be merely a coincidence, nothing ironic about that.
Maybe it would be ironic if you decided an some time ago to download the version because you figured 'hey, at least with this pirated version I don't have unnecessary baggage like Uplay' and then it ends up being the opposite, you get something even worse.
Also, since you're new here, while it isn't required, proper capitalization and punctuation are really appreciated on virtually every forum.

Um, what?
things are true when they are true
So... yeah... Why are people celebrating this? "That'll show those pirates!" No it won't... and there is no justice being done...
This is akin to going "Hah, those drug dealers slipped in some oregano into the pot they sold! That'll teach them!"
Yeah the pirates got "hit", but the publisher/developer still get nothing, and the supplier makes a ton of money off of people's stupidity that still won't go to anyone that worked on the game either.
No worries, i was pretty sure that this is what you ment I agree that Skidrow didnt put it in there.Yeah sry. I meant the actual release from Skidrow.
I love how the title says "thousands of computers" and we have a source confirming one.
If it was really that widespread, we would've heard a lot more by now.
People like interesting news stories.
Um, what?
yo that's way true. why? because it's true.
Eh. I weigh NeoGAF and 4chan posters about equally in that regard. As in, "maybe they're onto something" but take it with a grain of salt until there's conclusive proof.This would be awesome if true. But I don't really trust 4chan posts. There needs to be more evidence to it.
