Microsoft made an adjustment to its Bluetooth driver code for the Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 due to a ® symbol in the mouse's name causing issues. An archived article revealed that .wav files bundled with Windows contained a watermark indicating they were created using 'Sound Forge,' a professional audio software. 'DeepzOne,' a member of the Warez group Radium, co-founded the group in 1997 and was known for circulating a cracked version of Sound Forge 4.5. Microsoft denied using pirated software, claiming it had the necessary licenses, but the metadata referencing 'DeepzOne' remained. Despite the controversy, many users expressed indifference to the incident when it resurfaced in discussions.
