One day many years ago I had too many drinks and being stupid and naive and I bought adobe cs5. I still use it on the same computer I installed it a decade ago. Activated and installed only once. Today they revoked the access to it. Clicking the link they say “revoked because purchased from an untrustworthy reseller”

Yeah… untrustworthy reseller, look at the invoice and see who sold&shipped that physical copy…

sold by adobe themselves

Contacted support, they said that they won’t do anything about it because it’s EOL.

Moral of the story: don’t do like me. If buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing. Never give your money to Adobe.

    This reminds me of the time that Malwarebytes revoked 3 of my perpetual licenses that I bought before they moved over to a subscription model. Sorry, I told them I was never going to stop talking shit about them until the day I die, so I take any opportunity to bitch about it

      I have a frozen license with them which they’ll reactivate once I give them the receipt information they didn’t send me when I bought it from them…
