It's really easy nowadays to pirate software, which is probably why everybody does it, including big companies that can easily afford to buy the original. Of course, there are those anti-pirating-angels, who wish to wear their halos for all to see — which begs the question, why (besides taking cash into account) don't we download the genuine version of the software? Why are we so quick to dismiss it?
The reason is actually pretty simple. You can't run the stupid thing without an internet connection, and sometimes you gotta download another piece of software for it to work — then you have to create a freaking account, log into the new account on the second piece of software… and patiently await the installation process, which takes forever. In other words, it's a headache.
So we'd rather risk the big fines that come along with avoiding said headache. @doriangrey433 took to Reddit to share their frustrating experience with their former boss, who called some 6 months after the user had finished working at the company, accusing them of reporting the company's use of illegally downloaded software.
Imma be real with y'all… before you begin accusing somebody of reporting your illegal activity, you should probably begin with small talk. Y'know, be nice. Ask the ex-employee how they're doing at their new job. Maybe add a 'How's the wife? Kids going to school yet?'. Because there is a small chance that they didn't actually report you, but they certainly will if you're being a jerk.
