> By taking the license without paying for it

What do you think a software license is?

A physical piece of paper or something?

The student didn't "take" a license, if he could have, and did, there would not even have been a case because he would have had a license!

For clarity, not attacking you, just pointing out your completely inaccurate view of intellectual property law, with the intention that other people may not get any ideas this is actually how copyright works.

But don't worry, I won't call you out for being patronizing, not when you're the one being taught.
