Although this is awesome, the time it took you to perform this is half of what it would take to actually get up and walk over to the fridge and get a beer. Burn those calories!
Is this an issue with piracy or is it an issue with version controlling? Apple seems to have a plan under wraps that is probably going to unfold for at least another 5-10 years from the looks of it over the past 3-4 years. Perhaps they don't want anyone becoming unruly and causing a disruption in their plans?
Piracy, really, isn't an issue. The few people that actually pirate software and movies and music to SAVE MONEY are few and far between. Most people over 30 will go out and buy the products they want because they can afford it. The majority of these "issues" with piracy come from college students and younger - people that really WOULDN'T EVEN BUY THESE PRODUCTS if they were available for free on the internet. They never had any intention of purchasing them, but instead, they can get it for free illegally, and they know that, and that should be fine in the minds of the businesses. Because the more people that use your product, the more popular it becomes, and the more popular a product is, the more money will be made by a company. Whether it is software, music, movies - it doesn't matter. You can't force people to purchase your products - that's fascism or scientology morality, whichever you prefer to call it.
People are going to share, whether you want them to or not. I think it would be better to embrace the majority of this sharing as it promotes a healthier society. And people are going to hack, and break, and tear apart any little gadget or devices you want to hand over to them. So quit getting your panties in a bunch and let it ride.
