I try to be fair minded. I have various rare, life threatening and expensive illnesses (PSC, UC, Addisson's) and I'm still against universal health care because I don't think that it is fair - even though it would help me like you don't even know. I also have respect for law.

However I have never been able to convince myself that decryption, digital copying and file-sharing are unethical or that they deserve to be illegal. Much less a Federal offense. I just can't.

Selling copied merchandise is arguably unethical, but personal/relative/friend use is just a better form of memory.
