And if they don't that because they didn't notice it yet.
My worst case wasn't even my piracy.
At my previous job (like 15+ years ago now), the owner asked me to fix his daughter's laptop.
So I went about doing that.
And stupidly, I connected it to the network, and within minutrs, people were complaining the network was down.
The laptop was apparently blasting out so much spam, the ISP blacklisted us and blocked us.
To be fair, it was pretty easy to not screw up with early piracy. Just don't download or run any executables and you were pretty much safe. Back in the day, you didn't even need a VPN. I've screwed up far more recently than I did back then.
My favorite screw up was the time my mom got a C&D for me pirating the movie "Law Abiding Citizen". Awful movie but if I still had that letter I would frame it.
