Keep. What this article sorely needs is more and better references, but the company itself is most certainly notable. The DMCA case alone takes care of notability concerns in spades.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); October 1, 2014; 14:05 (UTC)

Keep my opinion that notability is easily demonstrated for this company given the varying material published by reliable third party publications Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 16:33, 9 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

'Keep'. The DMCA case itself seems like enough notability to keep the article. Pishcal (talk) 13:11, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Refs specifically related to the case apply just as well to United States v. ElcomSoft and Sklyarov, making that a reasonable merge target as long as the only significant coverage we have is related to the case.Dialectric (talk) 13:24, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The DMCA case is not the only call to notability. The recent leak of nude celebrity photos was made possible with the help of software developed by this company as well, and there were other events of interest between the DMCA case and the leak. A person interested in expanding this article should have no problem finding additional information corroborating the company's notability.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); October 16, 2014; 13:40 (UTC)
