Not all that relevant to the article, but students in southeast Asia(I was in a Sri Lankan university) rarely ever get access to any of these discounts. The only educational discounts I remember getting are free licenses to some Microsoft products, because the Microsoft regional manager for the country was a friend of my department head, and github students pack. We never got access to any Adobe, Mathematica, or any other math/engineering related software. Only things we had access to was couple of half a decade old dog slow computers in a "lab" with similarly old software versions with legit licenses. Students used to use cracked versions of everything to get stuff done.
