@nEx.Software: How can this make any sense? And, even if you do use this wannabe anti-piracy software, you will still have to provide some sort of mechanism to discover all the phones with illegal software installed, get their IMEIs and report them to some trustworthy company so they can process them. You can decide to rely only on the list provided and voila, no one is contributing the data any more. So, you are supposed to implement their program, your illegal software discovery algorithm and some sort of mechanism to report the IMEIs. Rendering their program completely useless - except in the sense of some underlying data mining process (gathering your personal data when trying to check your phone and gathering IMEI numbers, with which a person can accomplish much by visiting the mobile operator).
And, at the end you can never be sure if that IMEI was blocked for a reason, or was the anti-hack firm not so anti-hacked. At the end of a day you are all relying to some black magic so you can shift stuff you are supposed to do to someone else. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
