, Janvitos has decrypted a full Blu-Ray movie without even owning any Blu-Ray equipment. This is very embarrassing. Full DVD decryption took a few years, at least in any usable form. This took… oh… a few weekends. This isn’t a formal crack, but it’s more of a proof-of-concept. There’s no telling what they’re going to do with the keys once folks start cracking AACS willy-nilly.

Need the software? Grab it here. Otherwise, just watch your downloaded HD episodes of 24 and wait patiently.
