I see. I'm sure you're well aware that ripping will never stop and cannot be stopped, so why lock models in the first place? Why not give the resources used to the public for use on other models? I understand that you put your own money into it, but that won't stop anyone. I'm a developer and I can't recall ever trying to stop someone from accessing source code to something I've made. Maybe it's just the way I think and my belief that sharing is caring, but it seems to do more harm than good when you lock something because then shit like this happens.
