 Replying to [comment:5 cehoyos]:
 > that copyright violators are thieves imo.

 You are doubly wrong in this.

 First, if you know of a specific copyright violation, then point it, and
 see if they correct it. Otherwise, you are just slandering.

 Second, copyright violators are not thieves. So-called intellectual
 property has nothing in common with real, physical property. The discourse
 of mixing both is exactly the base argument of IP trolls pushing for
 harder DRM protections and such.
