That's why I speak out against attempts to paint copyright violation as

I write for a (meager) living. If someone were to take my work and decide for
themselves that it should be online for free, then they ARE stealing from me.
That is reality, not the semantics of case law.
No, they're not stealing from you. Quit taking talking points from the
