Adobe holds onto intellectual property, which are privileges specially given by government. It's government protected property. Therefore it's not piracy, it's using public resources we all pay for with taxes. :) Yes it's piracy. And the author can expect to be dmca'd, along with their account information being subpoenaed. Same thing I said to the Zelda decompiled team: if you're going to do it, you better have absolutely nothing associated with your real identity. VPNs for everything. Unfortunately, devs don't understand how medieval court processes are. If the corps want to, they can bury you. You exist because they let you.
