I work (as an employee) for a Greek affiliate of a USA cleantech company. In the past, the company itself did the mistake to buy a bunch of AutoCAD and AutoCAD Plant 3D licenses in USA for use in both offices (USA and Greece). Recently, I found out that those licenses bought in USA are not valid in any other country (terms of use by AutoDESK). The license might be able to get transferred to the Greek company by proving some degree of connection between the two companies (pending to be proven).
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/customer-service/download-install/activate/transfer-licenses/transfer-ownership-licenses
The IT of the whole organization agrees with me that the licenses are not valid for use in Greece right now, and they bring that issue to the USA management.
USA management seems reluctant to address the issue (probably being afraid that this transfer might not be possible, and that they might have to buy new licenses for the Greek office).
If asked to work using this software in Greece, can I deny working as part of being ethical?
