    If you are using custom made theme or buying from trusted site then there is no need of Tac plugin.It is necessary for those who uses nulled or pirated themes.
    Btw nice recommendation.

    I am not sure about akismet being free nowadays. Before, when you signed up an account on wordpress dot com, you will automatically get a free Akismet code. But now there’s no free Akismet code anymore. And when you go to akismet dot com, there’s a pricing plan. Is it still free?
