Controversies Surrounding Adobe

Quick Introduction & Background:

Adobe is a software company based in America, specializing in software for creative applications, such as video editing, photo manipulation, animation, or illustration.

Adobe initially distributed their software with perpetual licenses, where the user would only pay once for the right to own and use a copy of an application (or, through Adobe's Creative Suite, a collection of applications). In 2011, Adobe introduced Creative Cloud, a service that gave users access to all of Adobe's current software for a monthly fee; Creative Cloud eventually superseded Creative Suite and all of Adobe's perpetual licenses, and as of today, the only way to access up-to-date Adobe software officially is through Creative Cloud.
