WordPress Woes: BricksUltimate Addon Sparks Legal Drama with Stealthy License Checks

When a WordPress plugin plays judge and jury, expect pitchforks. BricksUltimate’s dev added a “license check” that could delete your data, sparking outrage and whispers of “malware” and “backdoors.” Now, he’s on a quest for redemption—or at least a less lawsuit-magnet solution. Jail time for code? Yikes.

Hot Take:

When your solution to piracy is to walk the plank of legal and ethical boundaries, you might just find yourself in a sea of angry pirates—and not the "arrr-matey" kind. BricksUltimate's developer tried to build a wall against pirates but ended up laying the foundation for his own digital Alcatraz.
