That's called "stealing".
No it's not. At *worst* you're voilating the copyright of someone elses
copyright violation. COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT IS. NOT. THEFT. This is not
my opinion, it's decided case law by the Supreme Court.
The more of it turned free, the better.
True, but you can't just take the law into your own hands.
Well until we get together enough people together to buy a Senator or
three like the likes of Disney does, we're not left a whole lot of options.
