Adobe asked Twitter to remove a tweet because it linked to an unauthorized MS-DOS copy of a 27-year old release of Acrobat Reader 1.0.

In a recent tweet, Hyppönen mentioned that the software company removed one of his tweets that linked to an old copy of Acrobat Reader for MS-DOS. This software, hosted on WinWorld, came out more than 27-years ago, shortly after the PDF was invented.

      i think microsoft still have comfortable margin far ahead, but adobe has been on free-sofware’s people hatelist for quite a long time ;)

      all the security vulnerabilities because of flash/reader… all the people getting viruses because they tried a Photoshop crack… so many reasons to hate adobe really
