FUD.
It would be completely illegal for them to do that. Consider: many pirated CD keys are from corporate editions; if the rightful owner used a CD key that had been ripped off, and consequently had
any data whatsoever damaged by intentional means, the lawyers would tear Microsoft apart immediately. And rightfully so.
But really, even a pirating user who had some data damaged might have legal recourse to file suit. (Though the case wouldn't necessarily be a slam dunk.)
(Read the comments for that article. Several posters call it like it is.)
