One of my clients is engaging in a business dialogue with a company by the
name of Blue Spike (www.bluespike.com) who have apparently developed some
digital watermarking products.
Has anybody heard of this company and are there any known flaws in what
they are touting?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[I have not heard of the product, but in general, digital watermarking
is a pipe dream much like copy protection. Given access to several
copies of a thing I can find the "watermarks" by comparing them. I am
unfamiliar with any systems that could actually withstand
attack. --Perry]
