This wouldn't be much of a discussion if it weren't for all those people
trying to rationalize the illegal copying of software.  The intent of
the copyright law is clear enough to everyone else.

Why do people pirate software?  Ignorance or thievery.  Don't delude
yourself by thinking it's anything else.
