Addressing the Problem of Piracy in the Adobe Creative Cloud Community Forum

New Here ,
Apr 28, 2023 Apr 28, 2023

Dear Adobe Community Members,

As a long-time user of Adobe Creative Cloud, I have seen firsthand the incredible power of these tools. However, one problem that I have noticed on our community forum is the prevalence of piracy and illegal software usage.

Piracy not only hurts the creative industry by taking away revenue from legitimate software developers, but it also puts users at risk by exposing them to potential security threats and malware. Additionally, it undermines the value of legitimate software and discourages innovation and creativity.

As a community, we must work together to address this problem and promote the use of legal, licensed software. One solution is to educate users on the dangers and consequences of using illegal software, and to encourage them to invest in legitimate versions of Adobe Creative Cloud.

Another solution is to provide more affordable options for users who may be hesitant to invest in full versions of the software. Adobe already offers discounted rates for students, educators, and nonprofits, but we can also explore other ways to make the software more accessible to those who may not have the means to purchase it outright.

Finally, we must also work to enforce anti-piracy laws and take action against those who engage in illegal software usage. As a community, we can report instances of piracy and illegal software usage to the appropriate authorities, and work to create a culture of respect for the intellectual property of software developers.

By working together to address the issue of piracy, we can help to ensure the long-term sustainability and growth of the creative industry. Let's commit to using legal, licensed software and promoting a culture of creativity and innovation on our Adobe Community Forum.

Best regards,

David

Lots of words that don't say anything.

It prevents the culprit and his "me too" friends from retunring to this topic.

I grew up in Los Angeles where we have a Graffiti Code.

Remove graffiti as soon as it goes up and the taggers lose interest.
