Luxion KeyShot License Server Deactivation and Perpetual License Controversy
In 2023 and 2024, Luxion, the company behind the 3D rendering software KeyShot, began deactivating license servers for older versions of its software that were sold under perpetual license agreements. This move effectively rendered many legally purchased licenses unusable, especially for users who needed to reinstall or move their software to a new device. The decision sparked criticism from users, raising serious concerns over digital ownership, software sustainability, and fair use rights.
