I don't know about the situation in other countries, but in Britain a copyright owner can ask for an "account of profits". This means that the pirate has to pay the amount of money he made by piracy. He can't say that the software he pirated was free, therefore no financial loss and so no damages.Don't know if that's the point. They make money with stolen property if they are using Psi code really. I think that's enough to be angry.
Because of this, it's lunacy to base a business on pirated software. You are simply doing free marketing for the copyright owners. If you are unsuccessful you might escape a trip to court. If you are successful you certainly won't, because there is a big pot of money for the copyright owner and the lawyers to dip into.
