A few typos and weird phrasing in that article. They call it "PirateFe" at one point and tell people to look out for "auspicious" software?

If you aren't paying for it you're paying for it.

I wish Google (and to a lesser extent steam) would do a better job curating their app store regarding searching for pay to own games as a category, they have a section, but there's no further subdividing that section.
