Are you referring here to a limited number of sessions or period of use of Refox? If that's the case, it would still enable people to use it to break someelse's application eula.

I'm of opinion that it's a shame that Refox is allowed to exist in the upper world. And it is our community that lets this endure.

>I think the software industry is missing a kind of EULA and activation code that would allow you to run the application one time (or a number of times, whatever you purchase).

>There are lots of situations in which you need an application only once. It would be nice to pay a small amount and run it for one day, or one time. It's nuts to pay $200 when you need the application only for a day. It would be great to pay $30 and enjoy it for a short period.
>What do most people in this situations? They break the application, pay nothing, run for one time, and done. And the application developer gets nothing.

Constructive frustration is the breeding ground of genius.
If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
