It's okay to not know what something is. Crack pipes are WIDELY known to be drug delivery devices. That's not unique to the United States.
Furthermore, advertising your product as being used to pipe "cracked" (otherwise known as ... stolen) games RIGHT there in the name of your product is like daring law enforcement to shut you down in actual record breaking time.
If you want your company to survive such things, you pick a name that is even more clever in that it isn't.... moronic.
I hope you realize this is the purpose of the application? Moreover, piracy is not stealing because it involves copying or distribution of digital content, while stealing refers to the act of taking someone's property without permission, depriving them of its use.
Ah well, maybe that IS uniquely American, the concept that depriving a company that makes digital content of their sales, depriving them of the use of that money they'd otherwise have, IS stealing.
I'm not defending those poor digital content creators, mind you. But your words here tell me you are both European and young. Be careful out there, ok. The people that make the laws don't agree with your definitions, and that means you gotta be ready to explain to them why what you did was totally allowed and decent.
You're assuming again, mate, and this time you're completely off the mark.
Not only that, but you also keep reducing my post counts while upvoting yourself. Everyone can see it mate, this isn't reddit...
