A new reverse engineering method dubbed Reverse Engineer Anything is drawing attention online after reports that someone used it to clone Adobe's flagship software. Commenters argue it was only a matter of days before copyright enforcement shut the project down, and they accuse copyright hardliners of selective concern, defending intellectual property only when it protects large companies rather than users who modify their own devices.

Why now: The tool threatens a major company's revenue, prompting predictions of a swift legal crackdown.
