    US Navy has an "Oops Moment"

    How's this for irony? US Navy hit with $600m software piracy claim

    Originally posted by El Reg
    A German software developer has accused the United States Navy of illegally copying $596m worth of its product.

    Bitmanagement Software GmbH claims that the Navy has copied "hundreds of thousands" of copies of its 3D modeling and tracking software BS Contact Geo without paying.

    They have filed suit [PDF] in the US Court of Federal Claims asking for damages of "not less than $596,308,103."
