So what happens when you spoof someones MAC out of their free 5 day trial? Then you are not screwing the "MAN" but some poor end-user.

I know it'd be hard to get someone's MAC address, but it's possible. And the more people that spoof their MAC's to get free trials the more chance some legitimate user will get screwed. So don't be cheap, get a cheap Navicore license or a stand alone GPS... or pay Wayfinder.

Your theory about believing that if one could get anything free then there is nothing wrong in getting it for free makes me wonder...

Free "crack" anyone?

Its partly their fault because they use this pathetic licensing scheme. However, you can always select from pool of MAC addresses which are assigned to other devices such as old 3Com NICs or whatever.
