I laugh at the bounds some people go to in attempts to defend their own thievery. You're only lying to yourself. You are stealing, the quicker you admit that the better.

Why, what happens when people admit that ?Originally posted by yNd aznbnet@3 July 2003 - 18:22

Something good obviously. Please enlighten us, I for one am intrigued.
What happens when people admit it? For one, they won't be lying to themselves, isn't that a reward enough? Some people are content with sacrificing the truth for personal comfort. How did I know this guy was a christian by simply reading his opening paragraph and thread title?
BTW, nice avatar
one more thing, the christian understone was evident in the thread title alone. I came to that conclusion before I read the closing sentance of his original post
Do you consider it to be stealing in a moral sense, or a legal sense, or both.

Confused about what? The fact that something is called sharing does not negate the fact that it's also stealing.
So whatīs the actual offence. Itīs okay to glibly say itīs stealing, but what law is being broken.Originally posted by yNd aznbnet@3 July 2003 - 19:50

Itīs Breach of copyright in my opinion.
Going into a record store and taking a cd with out paying for it is stealing, going around to someones house and copying a cd from them is not stealing!Originally posted by yNd aznbnet@3 July 2003 - 19:50

I cant make it anymore straight forward than that for you, as jpaul said alls we are doing is breaking copy right laws.
On the Peripheral
Looks like their use of throwing around "stealing" and "theft" is working.
things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
so, he does
the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
-- WW2 for the l33t

Stealing or not stealing, thats a tough one alright.
I don't think it's stealing but it comes damm close.
I was thinking along the lines of money, you are getting something for nothing when you recieve shared files which is like stealing, you are getting something for nothing.
If anything it's kinda like being in reciept of stolen goods, classified as stealing in some lesser courts.
I could go out and buy this cd/game/whatever OR i could download it for free, so ergo i am getting something for nothing and the company that made it also get nothing yet they havent lost anything but the potential to sell another copy of the media. I think thats what people classify as stealing since you are in reciept of a product that you didn't pay for that to get legally you would have to pay for.
Hmm i dunno, stealing not stealing stealing stealin steal ste st sssssssssss......
