However, as news of the crack spread, Big Fish Games took notice. The company's lawyers and developers were shocked and dismayed by the breach of their DRM system. They realized that the crack would not only harm their business but also compromise the security of their users.
In the end, Zero Cool and GAMESFOG decided to stand down, realizing that their actions had unintended consequences. They discontinued the universal crack and destroyed all related materials. Big Fish Games, however, took the opportunity to revamp their DRM system and improve their relationship with the gaming community.
Big Fish Games decided to take action, issuing a cease and desist letter to Zero Cool and GAMESFOG. The company demanded that they immediately discontinue the crack and destroy all related materials. Zero Cool, however, was not one to back down. He argued that his creation was a form of protest against the restrictive DRM system and that it was not intended for malicious purposes.
The battle between Big Fish Games and GAMESFOG continued, with both sides engaging in a war of words and wits. As the controversy surrounding the universal crack grew, the gaming community began to take sides. Some users saw the crack as a means to access games they couldn't afford, while others viewed it as a threat to the gaming industry's very fabric.
