I heard some stories where the app wouldnt even start in a normal legally bought for app.. Im very tempted to use these methods, but im afraid if it'll have accidentally some adverse effect. Is anyone already using them?

You need to implement your code absolutely fail proof and correctly and make sure that the anti-piracy measurements are not activated when the app was legally purchased. You need to figure out what your app needs to look out for in order to see if the app was pirated or not. If the app detects that it was pirated then it can (legally) do anything it wants, including turning the iDevice into an iBrick. Nobody can you (the developer) hold responsible when a pirated (stolen) copyrighted product creates havok.
If you wanna be sure that your anti piracy code is working correctly, then you need to do what a pirate does: Crack it yourself with the pirate's tools and test it.
