Mind you, "running in a VM" might not be a sign of piracy: apps exist that aren't supported any more (even vendor doesn't exist any more!) and wouldn't run on Vista or newer; or the client doesn't wish to have actual Windows boxes on the network.
Be very, very sure you are not impinging such legitimate use; people get angry when their paid-for software decides they're unworthy.
- bsenftner 7y agoWe don't mind our software running in a VM. What we mind is multiple copies of the same license on different VMs. When a client purchases a license, the terms include the option of VM deployments, which trigger additional auditing rights. So if a client has an air-gapped no-VM license, we want to block that license from running on a VM.
- Piskvorrr 7y agoAh, okay. That makes sense, thanks for the clarification.
