Reminds me especially of computer games in general and some single player Assasins Creed title specifically which had always online copy protection. The copy protection server was DDOSed meaning players that bought the game couldn't play or would always be kicked out of the game once the server went down again. On the other hand the pirates played the game without problems once they circumvented the proctection (a week?) after the game release.
