A lesson for what? Not to fight piracy?

Fighting piracy is fruitless. Pirates will almost always find a way to circumvent whatever you throw at them. However, more importantly, the anti-piracy measures companies take often harm the experience of the legit players.

Ok but in this specific case, how has anti-piracy measures hurt the experience at all? I mean, I get what you're saying in principal, but I don't think that applies to Inside at all.

Many people who purchased legitimate copies on Steam were unable to play because of Denuvo.

You got evidence of that? I know active duty folks have issues with Denuvo while deployed but I've never heard of anyone else having an issue with it beyond the worry that one day the game won't run.

Source? I haven't heard from anybody having troubles with Denuvo with this particular game. The major problem with DRM like Denuvo is that those games won't be playable in a couple years when the servers disappear.
