The Other Side ROGRESS OF NEW COMMUNICATION ADVANCES FOR ENGINEERS PROMISE
IMPROVED EFFICIENCY, BUT CAN RESULT IN THREATENING LITIGATION W By Heather
B. Hayes hen a small firm in New England recently purchased two licenses
for a new computer- aided design CAD software program, the owner thought
only of the creative and pro- ductivity benefits the acquisition would
pro- vide. He didn't realize that this seemingly innocuous action would
set off a chain of events that eventually would threaten the solvency of
his business. One night, an outside IT consultant, in performing his
regular maintenance tasks for the company, made backup copies of the new
software program and then without management's knowledge or approval
copied them onto every other computer in the office. Some time later, a
disgruntled employee sent a tip to the Business Software Alliance, an
enforcement ILLUSTRATION BY DEREK LEA organization for the software
industry, alerting them of the situation. And before long, the company
owner received a letter from a high- powered San Francisco law firm,
demanding over $50,000 in penalties and threatening litigation. 2 2
