OK, let me explain. First off, absolutely not, I do not condone distributing pirated software of any company. That's not what I meant to imply.
As for reporting to Apple, I'd basically just call their toll free Developer support line and speak to an Apple Dev advisor about it, and give them the information I knew about the individual. then, if they wish to pursue it any further, that's then to their disgression. All I can do is simply tell them, at which point it's then out of my hands. I've done my part at that point. As for the strictness thing, let me also explain what I meant by that. You have to understand that I teach professionally how to use Apple products. It would not help my credibility nor my reputation if I wasn't so strict. Though I wouldn't really necessarily report you for pirating software, I wouldn't support the act of doing so. With Apple, it's a little different since I actually do this for a job, and now possess an Apple certification. Might I add, it took me lots of hard work to get this, so therefore, I don't want it taken away from me, and I'm a bit concerned that frankly, if I didn't report it, yet I knew of someone who was breaking the developer policy, I could get in trouble. It's the whole, if you knew, why didn't you say anything. So yeah, it's not meant to be... in your words... discriminatory. I'm sorry you took it that way. I'm honestly not sure why you did, but, yeah.

If I received information that someone had downloaded a torrent of the beta version of the operating system and subsequently installed it, how would I go about reporting it? Any help you can give me is truly appreciated as I think I know someone who has violated the law. If you are not normally so prideful and strict, what has caused the vigilance with regard to Apple and your admirable dedication to such a rigorous ethical position? I'm only curious as I recently saw a discussion where you seemed to have some doubts related to your ability to report issues to Apple. Out of curiosity, I wonder if you could explain what you mean by your statement that Apple is one of the few things for which you will not bend your policy (I assume this is the proud and strict policy). Do you mean that it is acceptable to pirate software developed by companies other than Apple? How did you develop this discriminatory viewpoint? It would be quite instructive to know the other things, the very few instances, where you will not "bend this policy." I hate to come across as a butt, but I'm frankly getting tired of wading through this garbage.

Normally, I'm not so prideful nor strict with things like this, however, Apple is one of the very few things I will *not!* bend this policy on under any circumstances! But yes, you probably would most likely void updates, however updates should be the least! of your worries.

I missed WWDC today so did they say when the public will be able to beta test it? I know we get the beta for iOS 9in July but what about El Capitan?

That's really not my main concern, my main concern is will I be able to run it on my mid 2010 white MacBook? From what I heard on Twitter, it sounds like El Capitan has an advanced graphics engine or something like that. So is this the end of the line for me? Yosemite I mean.
