Shucks... Maybe if the college didn't rob the students blind on tuition, and the publishers not rob the students blind on books, maybe they could afford to pay for software licenses. 🤷‍♂️

Some people never learn. My Academy requires students to log in with their university account, so they know who does what.

Seems like you have to buy... a VPN so that they won't see you using pirated software.

Pretty much every software crack says 'Block this application in your firewall'. I guarantee most people don't. Following these instructions would have prevented this entirely.

Imagine using pirated software and allowing it to go online. Loco 🤯

I would hope they're not using static IPs and MAC address spoofing is a thing.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

usually college networks have a Mac address whitelist, so you need to turn off Mac spoofing in order to connect

It should be treated with "utmost importance", not with utmost importance. That ending is quite subversive!
