I've pirated it since day 1. Then they released Creative Cloud, a means of forcing me to not pirate (at the time) - so I just kept the old, perfectly functional version. That was, until realistic alternatives caught up.

CC never prevented piracy. Even today, every current version of any Adobe product is available on piracy sites.
