The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you’ve already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.

    Depends on the intention. Most “illegal” copies are distributed for free so that’s not counterfeiting (there’s no intention to deceive or defraud)

      I have yet to see country that doesn’t mind copying their currency unofficially but I’m open to suggestions 🫡

        Correct, that would be counterfeiting if you would copy money with the intention to deceive or defraud others. That doesn’t contradict what I said.

          IMHO it does contradict what you say. Intention doesn’t matter. If you copy currency , you either have to make apparent its fake currency or you are might get in trouble with law. Intention, aka motive is hard to prove and if proven doesn’t make it legal to copy official currency.
