I don't get it. What's the logic behind silently killing a counterfeit chip instead of showing a pop-up window with "Unlicensed chip detected, drivers stopped."

I don't get it. What's the logic behind silently killing a counterfeit chip instead of showing a pop-up window with "Unlicensed chip detected, drivers stopped." or smth? I'm sure most of the buyers of these counterfeit chips get in such situation without knowing and would be happy to return the fake chips/boards to supplier what in turn could help fighting the root cause, not just punishing the unsuspecting end users. I personally have encountered many non-working FTDI cables and blamed FTDIChip for their lousy quality control, so it not only hurts the end-users but the reputation of the legitimate company as well.
