This is the same reasoning the music and movie industries use when they go after people downloading music. And contrary to the popular opinion, I think it is wrong: if people want to pay, they will pay. Same for movies: if people would really want to pay for a movie, they would go to a cinema. Or stream it after a week or two. But there are also people who would jump through hoops than pay for music or movies. And that is not a lost sale because there was never an intention to buy something in the first place.
- fragmede 2y agoMusic isn't video games or movies, and is experienced differently, so while there are similarities, it's not the same because they aren't same thing. Locks keep people honest. Unfortunately, software lockpicks have the unfortunate reality of being as easily distributable as the software itself.
