Правовой аспект нашей деятельности или американские умы.

А... Я не понял сначала. Ну, может быть.
Хотя, как мне кажется, нынче авторы должны бы радоваться любому распространению их ПО, будь оно легальное или не очень... Особенно авторы всякой мелочёвки, известной полутора пользователям на острове Маврикий.

К сожалению такое отношение к России, где типа все ходят в шапках со звёздами армейскими и вокруг ходят медведи, вспомните фильм Армагеддон и Русского космонавта с Мира ... это ж сколько обкуриться надо было и как сознание у них нарушено чтоб такой бред на весь мир показать.

DimmY,

Лично мне тут другое интересно: каким образом они ухитрились перевести слово "русификатор" как "крэк"?

Это как раз элементарно - Google переводит: "Русификатор программы" как "Crack program" так что по незнанию русского языка пользуються google.

Кстати я в их лицензии ничего не нашёл про запрет на изменение кода или я что пропустил?

При желании могут вот к этому прицепиться:

Имелось виду нелегальное распространение, как раз таки. Выгодней пихать с обменников программу с русификатором, и зарабатывать на количестве скачавших.
Вот тебе и способствование пиратскому распространению.
)) именно так и происходит и про переводчика по потом ни кто и не вспомнит,


Аж один (!) благодарственный отзыв в форуме, кажется. Так что да, работа наша востребована до невозможности.
Как не печально, о самом переводе, я вообще ни разу не видел ни благодарностей, ни даже критических отзывов,, В большинстве обычно говорят о самой программе, забывая труды переводчиков.
DimmY, Хотелось бы узнать немного о самой программе и собственно способе при котором происходит русификация программы, вот пример есть некоторые переводы при котором приходится полностью менять exeшник, в котором скажем использован ключик активации программы, и тем самым получаем взлом,так как не написана что за программа, так же не написана платная или нет.
Может как раз из за способа русификации и прицепились,хз
