I stole some chewing gum from a shop the other day.

Later that day, I was mugged!!!

Moral of the story. If you steal gum, you may get mugged.

Is this a true story? Smells like a scaremonger tactic against pirates.

Good reason not to pirate software. That, and the fact that the developers do not get paid for the work that they do to make the software in the first place.

If he never intended on buying it in the first place then no revenue was lost.

I'm not much of a Redditor... but am I right in thinking that this is his only thread in reddit?

Yeah... credibility... you haz none.

Good scare tactic if enough people believe it.

The same thing happens with sharing and second hand sales.
