Ubisoft changes Anno 2070 DRM after Guru3D critique

Over the past week a news post of Guru3D's resulted in a lot of coverage on the web. Long story short, while they where testing the RTS game Anno 2070 for PC (from Ubisoft) they ran into downright silly DRM copy protection issues. You may install Anno 2070 on three PCs as you get three activations.

However they discovered that while swapping out NVIDIA graphics cards, each time after reinstalling a card the DRM kicked back in, rendering the game inactivated. Three strikes, an you are out.

I wouldn't even care if this title bomba's because of the DRM hardware issue.

Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
