Even PDFs can be timebombed
Patanjali 15th May 2009
Standards Australia (and probably many other organisations) sold PDFs of standards that turned the pages green when they expired (1-2 years) - could not read a thing.

Bit of a rort really as these standards are often not referenced after a project has finished, but the design references need to be kept for a contractual period of time. No one wants to keep paying fees to keep the pages visible when they cannot be used to facilitate generating further revenue.
