Intent... There isn't a law about upkeeping a corporation's expectation is there? Are these users in breach of anything? Good on the Mexican gov't in this case for protecting consumers.

The law cant even stop you from reverse engineering it or making a copy. It only stops you from distributing a copy.

IP law is only meant to setup an artificial monopoly and then only for a set amount of time.
