so im sitting here, wondering if the act of cracking software leaves a uncracked copy or not.
(i find the not to be highly likely) that is, could a hacker buy software legally for a comlink, crack it and still have the uncracked software sitting on said comlink, happily patching away? then at some later time the hacker could re-crack said software for a new, up to date cracked copy? |
