I remember software in the '90s having “limited licenses,” but operating on the honor system. Because you could just install it on as many computers as you wanted and there wasn’t really a way for companies to stop you.
It wasn’t until the early 2000s when I started seeing licenses verified through the Internet and actually limiting their usage.
Genuinely, thank you for the original. I see this edited into a meme so often, I couldn’t even remember what the original was.
