Press Release


Update: 01/21/2010

As many of our loyal followers and supporters are aware, Microsoft has accused us of violating copyright laws. After further investigation we found that Microsoft's claim was based on our identification of a product in which, we are currently disputing. Microsoft's claim to this copyright violation has resulted in a DMCA take-down notice and suspension from our service provider. While we understand the motives behind Microsoft's course of action, we do not agree that they have a legal or ethical right to do this.

Article 1, Section 8, Clause 8 of the United States Constitution

"To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries."

We are currently speaking with a well recognized and established organization; seeking out legal council to help support DECAF in our continued product releases. We sincerely appreciate the support we have received during this challenging time. If you would like to participate in our endeavor, please contact me at mike@DECAFme.org.

Sincerely,
Mike
