how is it stealing? stealing is taking something from someone and once
you take it that person no longer has or owns it. example. i take your
wallet with money in it, therefore you no longer have the wallet or the
money I have it, I stole it from you.
now I buy a game. I get the unlock info and setup for the game. so now I
have that info and also the developer of the game also has that same
info. now I give my unlock code to you. so now you have my unlock code
too. should you have it? no. but you do. but wait, the developer of the
game still has his game, the source code, and the unlock code that he
gave to me. I did not steal anything from him. the only thing i did was
the developer lost money because i shared a game. this falls under the
category of dishonesty not really stealing. how will we prosecute
criminals when the day comes when lets say you have a nice car and I
want that car. well stealing is a thing of the past I pull out my
duplicator gun, point it at the car hit a button and voila! I have an
exact working copy of your vehicle built atom by atom. and I even have
your keys! oh but wait you still have your own car and your own keys. I
should have paid for the car most that happened was the car dealer lost
out on getting my money for something i should have baught rather than
coppied. same thing happens if i borrow a book from a friend, read it,
and i like it. technically i should have gone out and baught the book
for myself so the author lost money because my friend shared his book
with me. stealing is taking something so the original owner no longer
has that thing. its stolen. this is not stealing its well copying. I
think culturally we have to change our terms. pirates, they steal. that
is pirates who loot ships and stuff they steal. but could we really call
them pirates if they board your ship and duplicate the stuff they want
put the copies on their ship and go off? no you still have the
originals. and if that day comes even money will no longer have value.
in fact if you can just copy everything then nothing has value because
everything can be coppied. so we would then have to completely rethink
our whole entire world economic system. and this could go on forever so
I'll stop here.

I'm willing to bet that some cool hacker will make an add-on for NVDA
to interface with that Jaws-fetish software that I can't spell. Then
buying the thing wouldn't exactly be all that wasteful, although I'd
rather pirate it to try it out for 30 minutes or so just to see how
mind-numbingly restrictive and basic it is, than buy it, then throw
it away.

Hi Dark,
Agreed. I wouldn't blame anyone for pirating the game in secret, and
no I can't feel sorry or any sympathy for Brian Hartgen if that
happens because its his own fault. Someone who clearly refuses to sell
single end user licenses to include it in a more expensive product,
something many people don't need, is just begging for disreputable
people to rip it off as fast as possible. Although, I don't personally
know of any such instances I wouldn't be surprised if this has not
already happened. People won't buy Leasey just to acquire a game that
use to sell for a fraction of the price. If they can they'll pirate it
instead, and that is a fact.

Well Tom It's a great shame Philip couldn't sell his game to a more
deserving party, not that I blaime him for this Brian fellow's
stupidity, a
very blind man indeed if he can't realize what he's got :D.
If this is truly the case I would not be sorry for someone to
pirate the
game as has already happened with the Bsc titles just to keep it in
the
community, ---- oh and no, I don't know about any pirated copies of
the bsc
games hanging aaround, such a thing is just a supposition by me.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
