Legality and Morality are entirely seperate issues.
The former is an agreed set of rules, as such is entirely objective. The latter is a matter of individual conscience and is entirely subjective.
One can quite easily break a law without having any particular moral issue. Basically as Lamsey outlined. He takes a moral stance, while being willing to break the particular law.
is it orthodox for the working classes to have broadband internet access in their homes on a home PC, downloading movies and music?Originally posted by Tyke@16 June 2003 - 18:49

I used to know the answer to this one.
If the "search" function were returned, I could find my original post and understand again why I do these heinous acts.

Have to agree bout the broad band bit - I would not pay the 50£ I pay if it weren't for this.(file sharing)Originally posted by Proper Bo, I tell thee@16 June 2003 - 18:47
I justify it because I can't be afford to buy all the albums I want or afford to go see the latest films at the cinema or buy DVDs. I'm not saying it's right, it's just why I do it. I do in a way pay though, it's the only thing I use my broadband internet for so I'm not getting the stuff absolutely free.
Also, who wants to pay for stuff when they know other's are getting it for free? I could get on my moral high horse and ignore this and pay for the stuff but I couldn't afford to even if I wanted to.

i admit to not stealing a thing. stealing would be to actualy take it from the source which somebody already has and made it available and legal for the people. if you downloaded a movie thats still in theatres thats not stealing. stealing is going in there with a camera and tapeing it. your just taking it from a willing criminal. Its like seeing somebody get mugged you had no part in the act but you seen it and you didnt say anything unless you do then you would just be a pussy. so ya
It's cheaper than the traditional 7-nights-a-week down the bookies and the working man's club!
I knew I shouldn't have used the "class" phrase, that's a diff. debate altogether and it was meant as a joke, but yeah, more people have B/B now, even me on pennies over the minimum wage.
