Hey someone just found a way to kill piracy. If companies spam this all over the internet piracy would be very much reduced.

That would be hella illegal. However, companies don't actually need to release a fake version. They just need to spread the rumour that there is such a version, and people will be too paranoid to download any version.

I can see the legal claim now...

Pirate:  "I was trying to pirate this game and my console got bricked!"

Police:  "You were trying to what now?"

Pirate:  "Uh nevermind."

Police:  "No, let's have a look at that PC.  One... two... three... 75 games pirated.  Oh this is going to be fun."
