As far as I know, those rootkits under discussion are only on Sony/BMG music cds. Those articles have nothing to do with Everquest.
Again, the rootkits are installed to protect the cds content. While it is very possible for them to do it with EQ, that's not what is happening, nor will it soon (I think so at least)

We are aware of this, but Sony could still be scanning our process list and open windows, etc... under the EQGame.exe proccess.

I encourage those in California and New York to take part, Sony seems to think they could get away with this, they have not released any press information about why this program came to be and what its doing on their CDs, so they are obviously not denying that this was done on purpose. Its low of the company and they have no right to get away with it.
