@shana Sabotage it is. Are lawsuits possible? (I know nothing of the legal system in Poland)

@shuttersparks hah, the lawsuit is NewAG suing the researchers for copyright infringement.

Follow

@shana Countersuit for endangering the public and loss of revenue.

I'm curious how this turns out. I can't imagine that anyone is amused by NewAG's actions.
