Ahoy fellow sea wolves and cannons lovers

I often make websites on WordPress (ecommerce, very packed websites)

And I have no money or intention to buy or pay for anything

But there are those plugins I want to use

I saw some websites that offer nulled plugins, but it seems they are injected with some bad stuff

Is there a way to clean them Or maybe some other way to get the plugins?

And if your client (or client's insurance) is just half-way competent, they will notice that some stuff have no activated license.

You will end up in a world of pain.

Just don't do that.

I make websites mostly for myself, everything else for friends, or neighbors, etc

Please, don't teach me where I will end up, everything is good 😬 especially in a piracy community

The issue is, that unlike movies, games and others, these plugins are no harder to pirate, but way harder to hide. It's not like a "Yeah, you could get in trouble.", but more like a "If anyone catches you, you are not going to financially recover.", which given the scope of clients (Fam, friends and yourself) and the fact, that these Websites are likely to be on the internet, is incredibly likely. Why not use a free and open source alternative?

I'm a foss guy myself, running graphene os with no proprietary apps except pirated games in a separate profile

"If anyone catches you, you are not going to financially recover."

Very sad to hear that pirates are afraid of something, I never get in trouble

It's really interesting to see somebody makes assumptions about me, especially strong assumptions 😄

Where did I make assumptions about you?
