So if we go by what the BSA says then piracy helps the economy by freeing up money to be spent in other areas. Not spending $3435734594 on Photoshop means I can spend more money in my local stores thus aiding my cities economic growth. So the BSA is trying to "steal" money from other companies who provide more concrete services! I believe they should be prosecuted for this.
Plus I've always loved how Adobe has been pirated into mainstream speech. You dont say a photo was manipulated digitally, you say it was Photoshopped. Adobe's business plan has always been to do the bare minumum to fight piracy so as to gain the dominant market share because everyone learns to edit media using their stuff, therefore it becomes the first thing a digital artist buys once they go pro.
Instead of rick-rolling we need to start ps3 hack-rolling and give them some real numbers to try suing. I want to see them sending out millions of lawsuit letters to everyone who thought they were gonna see the new Beiber video.
