Can they tell the differences between installs or can’t they? Either way, they’re definitely lying to their users.

    In my opinion, it’s bad either way for different reasons

    If they do tell the difference, then there is some tracking built into the machine that runs the engine, which is bad for the application user

    If they don’t tell the difference, then there will be exploits for intentionally reinstall multiple times, which is bad for the application developers
