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…
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.
I feel like money back in this instance should also account for inflation.
Nah I think that would be a bit too much. After all OP was able to use the software just fine up until now.
Then the OP just rented the software.
Adobe should pay more than the inflation-adjusted price - multiples of it, even - so that the repayment is actually punative.
