    I guess pirates don't result in additional costs for the developer from dealing with support tickets or other forms of customer care 🤷

      That's not the real problem. Key resellers actually cost the devs money because those keys are bought with stolen credit cards. Eventually the original card holder does a charge back for a purchase they didn't authorize and it's the dev that ends up with the bill.

        Ooh, that makes sense. I'm not too familiar with key resellers, so I was just guessing. But you explanation makes more sense. Thank you
