I've not tried tbh, but I do have a Mac I can try it on and let you know

[DruChill]

It's okay, I hope it works, I'll be waiting.

I am using sequia, the hosts file is located at /private/etc/hosts. Photoshop completely refuses to even open

I still can't get my Mac to use the list, but I do have it all blocked as I'm using the PC's internet as an access point

The mac version just seems to be using different servers all together IMO.
A more reliable way to prevent the non-genuine screen on Mac seems to be using LuLu or another custom firewall and completely blocking anything going out of Adobe apps.

You're right, LULU is a good blocker but even so I've already blocked everything and I get a message saying I don't remember anymore but I still sigh and get an error message from phtoshop. I checked and blocked everything.

@DruChill I would recommend first fully uninstalling all adobe applications with something like handbreak, then reinstalling from a trusted source (which for me was appstorrent ru) and then actively blocking anything as the requests pop up during installation. I have personally blocked only the photoshop app itself and ccx process. To me, it looks like whatever tool you used tried installing the entire creative cloud.

[DruChill]

So you don't get any alerts while using Photoshop?
