In a bid to clamp down on piracy, the company has launched a new initiative that seeks out 'non-genuine software' and issues warnings to people.

May 23, 2016 Adobe has said that it is simply using SIS to inform and protect its customers about the risks of non-genuine software. These risks include not being covered by a warranty or Adobe’s support.
At the moment it appears as though the checks are restricted to the US and Adobe seems to be checking Acrobat X licenses. But while the scope is limited right now, it's hard to imagine that the Software Integrity Service checks won't be rolled out on a wider scale and include more Adobe products.

Oddly, there are no penalties -- for now -- if non-genuine software is detected. The little popup that appears simply reads: 'Adobe validation testing has found this copy of Acrobat is not genuine. Click here so we can help. For more information, visit: adobe.com/genuine'.
According to TorrentFreak, Adobe says that no one will get into trouble for running non-genuine software, and the popup can be clicked away. The Adobe Genuine Software website gives no indication that non-genuine software will be limited, and simply advises that users uninstall the offending software and report the retailer they bought it from.
