I pirated a copy of AM6 and want to pay it back!

To clarify: we don't expect you to pay for what you did not get value from. However, the AP code kicks in whether or not you not value, if you do anything classified as piracy. To disable it, you have to pay for what you pirated. Think about it: would you have been able to even "try it for ten seconds" if you had not paid for it and not pirated it? It's still acquiring the product (value) without returning fair value (paying for it), which amounts to, you guessed it - theft.

So it's your choice. Don't pirate my stuff, or pay for what you pirate, or have active AP code running in your head.
