My worst case wasn't even my piracy.

At my previous job (like 15+ years ago now), the owner asked me to fix his daughter's laptop.

So I went about doing that.

And stupidly, I connected it to the network, and within minutrs, people were complaining the network was down.

The laptop was apparently blasting out so much spam, the ISP blacklisted us and blocked us.
