There's such a great big hullaballo about this. I wish it would just go away.

Here's the real skinny: DAZ Connect does not currently encrypt content that is not alread encrypted (initially, it encrypted everything you installed via Connect). In the future there will/may be Connect only content that will be encrypted.

That's it in a nutshell.

I think the "encrypt everything" was a mistake, more from a logistical and usability stand-point and I think they stopped doing that more because they figured out it was going to be a pain and not because there was a huge hue and cry over it (but there was, and still is and I am making no friends every time I point out that the questions they keep asking have a) already been answered or b) are ludicrous for one reason or another).

Say what you want... DAZ is still pushing forward. I'm not so sure one can they same about that other software. But... since I don't use it anymore, my opinion is only worth so much.
