Again, who is the victim here? Who is being wronged? -- Spall


Christ, Spall. The theater owner who pays the goddamn rent on the movie theater and pays the salaries of the ticket takers and popcorn makers. The movie producers. That's who gets harmed by your utilizing services for which you have not paid.

First of all, I don't "steal" cable or movie hop, so I hardly see how this is a self-serving justification - Spall

I didn't intend to imply that you did. You used yourself in your movie-hopping example, so I used you too. I assumed it was hypothetical. ;) I didn't say your arguments were self-serving; however, I do think they're an attempt to rationalize what is in effect theft. I realize you're just trying to think this through and I'm not saying you're a thief.

Now neuro, on the other hand . . . ;)

Victimless crime, Spall, is still crime. Dishonesty is NOT a good thing.

I actually think Graywolf has done a good job in this thread, and I agree with him.

'S'not the end of the world.
