True story: I negotiated with that third world country, enticed by the prospect of selling 4,000 copies of my software. I wrote it, busted my butt on it, and then they simply obtained one pirated copy, which went to 4,000 sites.
But I was a "corporation", not an "individual", so fortunately I could not be harmed. And besides, I do good work, so I am sure that some individuals became more computer literate as a result.
