Guess we will see if they keep it in PP12 and stepp into SM's shoes

@ Wolf , it does not prevent Piracy it provokes Piracy . If you run your legal licence it will be affected from the call home it will even periodically send a lock to get all SM versions down even if they have Permanent licences. If you run a unregistriert versions there servers will not be able to get into your system and leave you alone , so there goes honest people!

That's hokum. Locking my door when I go out does not provoke people into wanting to break in. I believe that people who pirate things, including software, are already inclined to do so, if for no other reason than to feed their own egos by proving that they can pirate it. Same reasons some people hack and steal.

That's it in a nutshell - a thief is a thief. Same thing as people who have more money than they know what to do with who go out shoplifting.

They will always try to justify it, but it's still theft.
