This makes the claim of ignorance absurd, and insulting to all involved.Ħ.) The licenses installed on our computers make no reference to our software being time limited, revocable, or even student editions. It is self-evident and their joint campaign took preparation, well before the theft of our software, and subsequent push towards adopting the very product on the advertisements. AAU and Adobe are in a public business relationship. This joint campaign was organized months before the cancellations took place. I personally find this highly suspicious given the well-orchestrated plan to support Adobe in an advertising campaign, using AAU student work, and AAU real estate.

Therefore while Adobe blames AAU squarely, AAU is claiming complete and total ignorance.

We have a plethora of sources for this claim.,ĥ.) The acting school director of AAU told me, Sarah Ryan, directly, that she had “no previous knowledge this would happen.” She even went on to claim “shock” at the turn of events. Many, in desperation to keep their jobs, were forced to pay the ransom and join Creative Cloud against their personal will.Ĥ.) Adobe blames AAU for the cancellations, with no details as to why, except for a clear direction to only contact AAU about the issue as they will not assist us or explain their reasoning. There was no warning, and no one was prepared to endure the changes or impending costs associated with the theft.

In fact, we have several sources for this claim, and it is not in dispute.Ģ.) We were given stand-alone, non-subscription based software, which appears to be the last possible independent version of Adobe’s software suite.ģ.) License cancellation began in June 2014, occurring in waves, with the largest set of cancellations (and presumed final batch) occurring around August 3rd, 2014. We have documented proof that we were told, in writing, that these licenses would never expire and all forms of professional and student work were permitted. Before the big announcement about our licenses, which is supposedly happening today, I wanted to do a recap of facts that we have gathered over the last three weeks so we can easily review our position as a group.ġ.) Between May 2012 and August 2014, the Academy of Art University granted students permanent licenses, for CS6 Master Collection.
