I’m failing to draw a connection between what OP said about his friend, and the rant you wrote.

Well op said "colleague" rather than friend, which I point out only because that is presumably why they made the connection to work.They're referring to using pirated software at work, which could introduce ransomware without you knowing it. Ransomware can remain dormant for extended periods of time, giving it a better chance to evade security controls and spread to other machines.

I was assuming that software wasn’t used at work. Anyhow, cool rant
