I'm immediately skeptical of any reports that put "piracy" anywhere in the top n list of problems for a platform. The great majority of people use the play store and buy their apps just like everyone else.

..Now whether it's a bogus perception, and the perception is causing people to eye the platform with suspicion, is a legitimate question. Correcting misinformation is hard.

There's been a lot of criticism for that comment and it really shouldn't be taken without a large pinch of salt. For example, it didn't account for people buying it once and installing on more than one device. That's a pretty big oversight.

Much as I love ustwo, it was a stupid comment for that developer to make.
