Should Microsoft allow users of pirated versions of Windows XP to install the upcoming security update, Windows XP Service Pack 2?
Choice #1: Yes, pirate machines should be patched. Machines whose security have been compromised are a threat to all users. Microsoft created a big security problem on the Internet – it’s their responsibility to clean it up.
Choice #2: No, pirates shouldn’t be patched. The only things pirates are entitled to is swift and sure punishment from the law.
In case you were wondering, my choice is #1.
