yeah, this was e&y and also kpmg harassing the poor guy. we wrote a simple letter of please fuck off and i am certain they backed off.

the guy was traumatized to a point he was asking if post HDD format, records of "pirated windows" would remain... oh boy

scummy way of making money.

the problem is, all these proprietary software companies, from tally in accounting to Microsoft with excel/word and adobe for example, they pay the colleges/schools to have their product be used in education. i am talking about india here specifically so the students "learn" that piece of software. that is precisely the idea behind "student discount" or "free for students".

That is what "most" companies do while the really scummy of them, adobe et al then go after these poor souls
