Double eeek!
Pretty vengeful and probably libelous to purposely destroy a users data.
There are any number of scenarios where a legitimate user could have that
happen to them. Someone whose keyfile became corrupted for whatever reason
and had their data destroyed could sue bigtime.
Note that I am not condoning piracy, just being critical of this method of
fighting it.
