Ask HN: Why Won't Adobe Release for Linux?

DRM and copy protection.

Or more correctly, lack of rootkit capabilities to enforce such.

The main difference of osx/windows from linux, is that on the formers you (the end user) do not control the kernel.

In this case, the truth is that Adobe CC has been cracked on both Mac and Windows, so whatever they are doing is pretty useless. I'm sure they can bake in something that will work on Linus and also eventually get cracked as well.

I think this is the only answer.
