According to Natural Point lawyers the FreeTrack developers:

"removed violating material from the binaries and replaced it with tools which allow the user to violate the copyright themselves when TrackIR support is needed".


From a legal point of view this apparently moves the copyright violation from the FreeTrack developers to end users of FreeTrack. Taking individual users to court is ridiculous.

However this discussion is also ridiculous as no-one here is, as far as I know, actually a copy-right lawyer so everyone is simply scanning the web for quotes to try and badger the opposition with.
