@liztai I only buy software that I can keep. Those that I’m not able to, I endeavour to crack so I can keep. I might want to share it with a friend for instance. Nobody’s bottom line is affected as the friend was never going to buy it anyway.
I remove DRM on ebooks for the same reason. I don’t do piracy, but can’t abide being told what I can and can’t do with software or media I own.
I have one SaaS service for my mail and VPN.
I’m a stubborn old relic, but it’s good that others are of this mindset too.
