AARD Code references in PDFs?
Authored by: Anonymous on Thursday, May 31 2012 @ 11:09 AM EDT

The AARD code is interesting, to me, because it seems to show active intent.

Naughty code, decrypted at run time, which allegedly detects competitor product and FUDs the user.

The essence of antitrust, no? Caught, in the act, a presumably repeatable act (in court). The AARD code, to me, is a constant reminder of the farcical nature, as applied, of the legal system in the USA.

The original article contains a number of links to PDF files. Being lazy (reading and marketing) it seemed easier to ask if the AARD code was mentioned in any of those PDF files than is would be to actually download and search each file (waiting for search bots to digest the files is also an option).
