I think the justice he is referring to is Microsoft will realize how stupid it is to have these activation schemes that do nothing but anger legitimate users.

That's completely incorrect. Legitimate users of Windows have to deal with activation for a minute or two and in the vast majority of cases they never see it again. People who steal software are angered by it - all of the people I knew who had problems with XP activation in college, for example, were trying to steal it.

It's not perfect, but it more or less serves its purpose.
