Clean room reverse engineering is entirely legal. Fuck IBM, they're pulling an Oracle.
Shit they're pulling an old school IBM eh?
Maybe I'm the US, but is it legal in the UK? Also too, if the matter is the fact that they didn't physically reverse engineer the subsidiarity's mainframe, and in fact were able to piece together software solutions to drop in, how in the world is that a violation of anything?
