Perhaps, but I'd hate for someone to be ignorant of the fact that they're stealing it. If they want to steal it, and/or help others do the same, then it's a intentional, knowing act of theft, rather than an ignorant or unintentional one. > If someone felt strongley enough, to report an individual they could. > But is it worth it for that individual to suffer criminal charges for > moral wrong doing. I just wanted to point out that it's theft; if their moral system is such that that doesn't bother them, well, that's their problem. > BTW, I do not include some one selling individual copies of one piece of > software in the same criminal league as the "Companies" that have > lockups full of directly replicated copies of expensive software that > are sold a knock down prices as originals.
