I have severed your head, and your hands continue to punch wildly, knowingly only that that was the last directive given.
I have proven that you acknowledge that copyright exists. You cannot dispute that, so you just try to say that no one understands you.
I am not talking theory, I am talking ethics. The very real ethical ramifications of violating artists' rights. You cannot dispute the points about ethics that I have put forth, so you instead fall back on the defense that thievery is wide-spread. The majority of a people perpetrating a wrong does not make that wrong any less heinous, or make any of the negative ramifications of those actions any less negative.
By yoav's logic, slavery would not have been slavery, or morally reprehensible, so long as the people who committed it did not believe it to be so.
And that defense is his entire defense, as he has jettisoned every other point he has ever tried to make in this thread. Steadfast refusal to acknowledge the negative impact of one's actions is not something I can ever respect or condone.
