Why not call them undocumented downloaders instead of illegal downloaders? What can they do about undocumented workers that are also undocumented downloaders? If it is ok, and in some instance to reward them, the undocumented workers, how can it be justified to punish undocumented downloaders?

Cool... maybe they'll stop.. (fat chance). I'm amused that aside from the euphemists [who continue to call the activity "file sharing"], they mostly don't even try for an apologetic for what they're doing: they *KNOW* it is both improper and illegal [else they wouldn't go to so much trouble to use various anonymizing schemes to cover their tracks], but in an amoral sort of way they figure it is OK, or that the copyright holders are evil and money grubbers and deserve being ripped off... or [more likely] "free is good"... /b\ -- Bernie Cosell -- ---------------------------------------- The WIN-HOME list is hosted on a Windows 2000(TM) machine running L-Soft international's LISTSERV(R) software.
