Haha I think we can expect to hear a lot of crying from thieves, whining about their 'rights'. It's not that I'm in favor of violating a person's rights.. it's just that the whiners won't recognize the irony of how they've disregarded the rights of people who've created this 'intellectual property'. Most thieves have a way of 'rationalizing' what they do. Some will blame it on the high price of software. Others will point at people who steal.. and then 'resell' the software, loudly exclaiming; "See! They're worse than me!" Whether it's sold, or given away, it's stealing money from the creator.. and discouraging them from bothering to make more great software.. and driving up the prices for the rest of us. Burn Baby Burn!
