According to TorrentFreak: the ‘First Pirated Ultra HD Blu-Ray Disk’ Appears Online. And AACS 2.0 might be Cracked.
TF noticed a pirated copy of the "Smurfs 2" UHD Blu-Ray Disc appeared on the well known private torrent trackers UltraHDclub and IPT. The release suggests that the AACS 2.0 encryption technology used to protect these discs may have been circumvented for the first time. However, without further details, it's probably wise not to jump to conclusions too quickly.
The torrent in question is a copy of the Smurfs 2 film and is tagged “The Smurfs 2 (2013) 2160p UHD Blu-ray HEVC Atmos 7.1-THRONE.” This suggests that AACS 2.0 may have been “cracked” although there are no further technical details provided at this point. The disk and download is 53.30 Giga Byte.
After reviewing the full file our expert source believes that the release is indeed a copied UHD Blu-Ray Disc. Whether AACS 2.0 has been broken is still unclear.
