The cracking app doesn't prevent apps from "phoning home". What it does is hook between the app and the Google licensing API service to pretend that the app was purchased.

The argument that it makes pirating apps easier but Alf's tool don't is completely illogical. Of course Alf's tools make pirating ebooks easier. And of course there are many, many avenues to get books illegally if we choose.

Since you quoted me I assume you referred to my post? I didn't say that Alf's tools wouldn make piracy not easier. In the post you quoted, what I said applies to Alf's tools as well: If you're using the latter with the goal to pirate content, it's wrong (both legally and morally) and should not be encouraged here at MobileRead. What you do with the tools available and when you use them is entirely your decision.
