@rysiek @inkscape well I mean from a copyright point of view, which is the only reason you need a “licence” in the first place.

If they have revoked/terminated the licence, but you don’t need a licence to run it, what do they sue you for exactly?

@revk @rysiek @inkscape to use adobe software you need to connect to their activation shit servers ...
For newer ones: each few days
On older: just after install/update

So yes these assholes can stop you from using it.

I was forced to not reinstall my lightroom few years ago by adoshit corp.

@revk @rysiek @inkscape oh and yes. In their licence there is information that "activation service is needed and we will give access to it for at least x years and we can kill it after that lol loooser"

@revk @inkscape EULAs might or might not be enforceable depending on jurisdiction.

And in the end it might not matter all that much. If you're just a creative type using the tools or a small workshop, will you be inclined to go to court and fight against a lawsuit from Adobe?..

Most likely you won't. Because that means years in litigation and a lot of money with a very uncertain outcome. So all this armchair lawyering is pretty irrelevant, IMVHO.
