Software Hypocrites

It is far too easy to get caught up in software piracy, and it is even easier to justify the use of that software. Either the software is too expensive, you need to learn it, or you want to use it for personal projects. Whatever the reasoning, there can be no justification for a software company to use illegitimate copies of other software. Software companies that use pirated software are hypocrites. How can you expect others to purchase your software when you are too cheep to purchase it from everyone else? If you know your company is using illegal software, it doesn't hurt to ask them to buy a license. If your company cannot afford a certain product, alternatives exist. Don't be a software hypocrite!
