Will PS CC still function

I activated Task Manager to do a performance check and discovered that Creative Cloud was automatically connected to internet.

Although I haven't tried it...can I disconnect my computer from the router and still process and save images during non-payment periods?

Yes, it will still function. The desktop apps check for license every 30 days.

From that link, what most would be concerned about.

Thanks for the heads-up guys, appreciate it.

The ability to run offline for a period will be the weakness that allows it to be hacked not to need a license, i would guess. I can understand why they have done it though.

I don't think that security was ever a goal of CC. If I remember correctly, it was hacked within the first 24 hours.

I wonder though if anyone has sniffed CC to see what the heck it's sending back to Adobe. Is it as innocuous as just sending a license check or is Adobe doing some snooping as well, stuff like usage statistics or other things.

From a personal, non-professional, point of view, that wouldn't concern me...but I could understand it bothering the pro's out there.
It would be a good way to give their programmers a good direction to pursue for upgrades.

Adobe probably wants to read your email or something, nothing to worry about
