所以，经过6个月的努力，我终于发布了我的申请。今天我发现第一个下载它的网站被破解了，我想知道你们程序员同事中是否有人知道如何应对这种东西?
有什么软件作者可以做什么来让破解的版本离线，或者我只是骨头，不应该再创建任何软件，而只是在客户的项目上工作?你有什么建议?有人有这方面的经验吗?
编辑:编程是我所做的——所以是否继续没有问题，只是客户为每个项目支付真金，我仍然不知道独立开发是否至少会为所投入的时间付出代价，现在有了破解的下载，我试图评估该做什么，以及是否有办法做出反应
帖子讨论:当我看到这个问题引起了多大的兴趣时，我想说，即使不是纯粹的编程主题，社区也需要说出他们的想法。我想说，对于任何对这个主题感兴趣的程序员来说，这个页面都是一个非常好的读物。

还要考虑价格。我不知道你们的软件是什么，但每种产品都有多个市场。例如，Photoshop有一个普通版本，它有点超出了任何人想要修饰他们的假期照片的成本范围。出于这个原因，他们制造元素，虽然没有那么多，但确实服务于市场。如果你的软件价格昂贵，而且个人用途有限，可以尝试发布一个家庭版。试用版，广告支持版。
你不要试图检测被黑的版本。这种类型的DRM只会惹恼真正的用户
我会不断更新软件。确定一定有一些bug需要修复，并添加客户要求的新功能?当用户拥有盗版版本并对其感到满意时，他们会发现当前版本拥有更多功能，这可能会促使他们购买最新版本。
添加新功能不仅能让现有客户满意，还能吸引新客户。
Consider piracy as a business expense that comes with the territory of having a product that can be sold to thousands at near zero product cost. We can't have it all our way. Just use basic protection to stop customers passing it around. Anything more is not worth the time and expense. Don't make your paying customers jump through licensing hoops. Often I'll pay for a product, get driven crazy by the licensing scheme and seek out a cracked version. Make trials not by period but by hours used. It's easy to get diverted and not have a chance to evaluate the software. Most people won't consider to ask for an extension. Consider if you've pirated music CDs, movies, software etc. yourself and rest in peace knowing it somewhat evens out. Always have different levels of your product. People don't want to pay big bucks for a product they only use 10% of. Make the product fantastic. Customers will eagerly await the latest version and not want to wait for a crack to appear. The users of poor products think, "I hate this product, it's full of bugs, but I haven't found anything better yet". That's inviting piracy.
让你的软件在某些云中以SaaS的形式工作，这样你就可以以一些流量/功能价值出售它，并防止它被破坏。
I don't know for sure what I would do in your position, but at least one developer who found his cracked software available as a torrent emailed the host to complain -- not about the crack, but about the quality of the crack. It seems that the cracker didn't do a very good job and made the software less desirable. The developer was apparently horrified that his product, with his name, was going out to people and would ruin his product's good reputation, and demanded that if someone was going to crack it, that they needed to do a better job!
