The patches involved in the crack prevent the Adobe software from “calling home”.

And just because alternatives exist doesn’t mean Adobe doesn’t have amazing proprietary software; outpainting has never been easier than in Photoshop Beta, plus they’ve developed a lot of really neat neural filters.

I’m sure it’s possible to recreate all of these features by installing umpteen extensions into Automatic1111, but hot damn Photoshop just works.

The work is done on the servers unless Adobe has started requiring you to have a powerful 8gb plus GPU and is sharing its model file.

Very true, many of the actions taken mention whether the processing is being handled in the cloud or locally.

While I’m not going to claim to be an expert on the matter, it’s my impression that authentication & verification are limited primarily to downloading/updating software— once you’ve managed to bypass the activation and keep mind to avoid updating directly through the app, you’re “inside the walled garden”.
