Yes, but it is also a bit scary / dystopian that a $62 billion company would go to such great lengths to have one of their own customers thrown in jail for using the product that he paid for in a way that wasn't hurting anyone.
Hardly dystopian. They just had someone who understands how tech works on staff.
