It was admitted here that FT Users did, and still do, use the NP route to access games that dont use the free accessible freetrack.dll.
As this is done by the users and not by FT it is not possible to prosecute.
So the users using the hacked NP-route are legally safe but maybe morally questionable.
As it was explained quite a few post earlier, NP is not the big multinational company with unlimited resources as some posters her seem to imagine.
It is a company that started with software/hardware to ease the life of disabled people which then expanded to this small niche-market flight-simulation.
Still it is a small company and when the kinect system from MS is pushed into the market, this company is history, along with other companies that serve this market.
Then we all will find out what a real monopol is, when the price for kinect units has risen to the real costs plus the gain MS can get then without rivals.
I believe some will then look back with grief to this time with petty discussions.

Quite so! And when Windows 10 comes down the chute and makes all your Kinect software unworkable, so that you have to shell out for Kinect IV to keep using tracking - viz. Win XP, FFB1 and the gameport interface - then I expect we'll hear all the same stuff again. The only problem by then will be that no-one is listening.
