Compensating for piracy

  • April 20, 2024

I am from a third-world country, and I have been using unauthorized copies of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop to earn for myself. However, upon realizing that such practice of mine is forbidden according to my religious convictions, I have decided to discontinue using them and am willing to compensate for it, be it financially.

I also hope Adobe will accept my apology for years of breaching their intellectual rights. I'd like to confront Adobe regarding it if necessary and possible, and would be grateful if I am made aware how to.

    Thank you for letting us know that you have chosen to do the right thing. While you are waiting to get legal versions from Adobe, you might use a search engine to look for free alternatives.

    Thanks for the reply.

     

    As silly as it may sound to some, I'll probably remain anguished until I am assured that Adobe perceives my act as condonable, and if not, then I am allowed to know of an amount that Adobe may demand as compensation. Any suggestions in this regard?
