They did nothing to try to protect themselves from pirating except make the amount of information needed too big to send via email.
That is called 'being nice'. IE 'adding value' in SUITese. It is not a license to steal.
We are blessed to be able to watch while Aaron & a bunch of talented midwifes (beta testers and MODders) give birth to the greatest space strategy game the world has ever seen.
I am very gratefull that MM has not decided to hurt ALL their paying customers in order to inconvience a few pirates.
