    If they could tell an install is pirated then they would lock it down

    They either count all installs as legitimate or pirated copies are not picked up by their telemetry

      On the contrary, I think the incentive would be for Unity to let the pirated install keep existing because that would mean more money they can extort from developers/publishers.
