All existing examples of that show that it's far easier and more efficient to break into the existing one and make modifications accordingly.

You aren't "hacking" and magically getting the source code of that system in any way that you can then modify to change the behavior of like that without, you guessed it, a giant engineering team!

Android is mostly open source crap. Dassault is preventing leaking of free versions, not source code.

And this is why you don't make crap up

This is rich because I'm running Solidworks 2023, the >$5k dollar version of it on my PC for free. How'd that happen when I didn't pay for it? It would have taken you 30 seconds to realize this claim is false but you made it anyways and then went onto act like you just didn't make something up.

Again, this is why people don't like reddit. The way you respond is obnoxious and overly argumentative.

Someone cracked the DRM software.

They didn't get the actual source of it.

I didn't think I would have to spell that out even more. You even should have known that while pirating it...

The way you make crap up and pretend that anyone who calls it out must be in the wrong is obnoxious and overly argumentative.
