+/**
+ * Allows the developer to limit the number of devices using a single license.
+ * <p>
+ * The LICENSED response from the server contains a user identifier unique to
+ * the &lt;application, user&gt; pair. The developer can send this identifier
+ * to their own server along with some device identifier (a random number
+ * generated and stored once per application installation,
+ * {@link android.telephony.TelephonyManager#getDeviceId getDeviceId},
+ * {@link android.provider.Settings.Secure#ANDROID_ID ANDROID_ID}, etc).
+ * The more sources used to identify the device, the harder it will be for an
+ * attacker to spoof.
+ * <p>
+ * The server can look at the &lt;application, user, device id&gt; tuple and
+ * restrict a user's application license to run on at most 10 different devices
+ * in a week (for example). We recommend not being too restrictive because a
+ * user might legitimately have multiple devices or be in the process of
+ * changing phones. This will catch egregious violations of multiple people
+ * sharing one license.
