I ♥ Rootkit T-Shirt

Josh Williams has designed a shirt to celebrate Sony’s wonderful new audio CD rootkit feature:

We don’t know about you, but when we buy a music CD we consider it a friendly invitation for complete strangers to come in and make our computer their personal playground. Install hidden software that hijacks basic components of our system? Open us to attack from viruses and hackers? Sounds perfect!

I’ve already ordered one.
