From the comments at IGN, it seems that this already has been fixed. Anyway can't EA just allow people to pirate the game. These stories just make piriting more popular.

Why would they not do something to stop it?

But yeah, I kind of wish it did worse things than this, good start EA

Because it just gives a challenge to people to pirate the game. These methods never work and just end up hurting geniune players who bought the game in some way.

How does it hurt players who buy the game?

It just makes a little bit harder for some people to pirate it and that's all they're trying

According to the link Xander gave it has been affecting paying players in the form of a bug. Simcity always online DRM caused people to lose their save files numerous times. Ubisoft DRM meant that most people who bought the games at the start couldn't play them so had to pirate the games to play them.

DRM is basically shit. People find a way around them in days now so what is the point. Unless it's something like steams current DRM.
