The law is still the law .. in some countries avg users dont care about piracy, they just want to use it .. does that mean piracy is okay??? no its not ..
"Piracy" is not a good word to use. "Unauthorized copies" might be better. I still remember hearing rms once talking about "the only thing worse than using an unathorized copy is to use the original copy, because the company is directly benefiting from it!"
