The analogy with the car is flawed.

A better analogy would be DRM for games. It's like a games console melting its CPU if you try to play a pirated game or mod the console to bypass the DRM.

Harsh? Maybe. Fair? Perfectly.

Actually no. It's more like your CPU melting in your PC if you tried to overclock it, this has nothing to do with piracy.
