> Q. If you don’t let customers reverse engineer code, they won’t buy anything else from you.

> A. I actually heard this from a customer. It was ironic because in order for them to buy more products from us (or use a cloud service offering), they’d have to sign – a license agreement! With the same terms that the customer had already admitted violating. “Honey, if you won’t let me cheat on you again, our marriage is through.” “Ah, er, you already violated the ‘forsaking all others’ part of the marriage vow so I think the marriage is already over.”

What a thoroughly nasty comment. She is comparing her customer with someone who is cheating on their spouse. Disgusting.
