What a crock

If the software industry REALLY cared about piracy, the guy
wouldn't have been able to sell millions of dollars of pirated
stuffs for years. Finding the pirates is EASY.

The software manufacturers are USING this to create market
share. Get people used to using their products. THEN they lower
the boom. If the software industry wanted to crack down on this,
they literally could force every domestic software pirate ON the
internet out of business and into jail within 3 months. But they
don't. And they won't.

This criminal likely got pinched because he flaunted his wealth.
If he had stayed low key including a really amateurish website,
he likely wouldn't have been pinched at all.

Dude should lose all the ill-gotten gains and go to jail. But the
software industry is fostering this illegal behavior. I mean how
long did the dude operate in the open?
