I get the whole "stick it to the man" mentality; but we all have choices to make. You can keep the same product, get an additional year of free updates and support or you can go out on your own and hope nobody notices (or you can just substitute another product). It's unlikely that anyone is going to sue you to change your copyright, but again, it all comes down to choices.
If you want support and updates, the choice is easy. If you don't; well, I wish you the best on your future endevors.
