Machine, I really don't know where you're coming from on this. Your viewpoint seems a little reactionary and harsh, purely aimed at stifling free thought and open discussion. I think its important to exercise fairness and be open-minded, your perspective is so self assured and absolutist that people are being alienated. Nobody here is advocating copyright violations. We're trying to discuss art theory and technique. Your viewpoint seems to be that digital cloning is a forbidden art, needed to be stamped out by the thought police. Maybe we should go slash up the Mona Lisa? Or maybe smash a wax museum sculpture of Marilyn Monroe. After all, I don't remember seeing a release form from Da Vinci glued to his painting.
