illustrator is not free nor has it ever been free.


"freely available" does not mean that it's "free".

It may have been better if Ragnusen Ultred had written "readily

Not necessarily.


If you're downloading the tweaked versions from Adobe without actually
owning a licence, then yes, you are pirating it. The instructions on
Aodbe's download page specifically say you have to already own a
licence.
