In the wrong, as far as ethically speaking, no. In the wrong, as far as legally speaking, I have no idea. IANAL. The RIAA could very well be right. It's for a court to decide (and appeal), not me. WotC is not asking everyone playing the game to own a copy, merely that every copy acquired is by legal means.
Your entire post seems to be full of overly contrived strawmen that have no application in the current situation. |
Im addressing 2 aurgments that I've seen in this thread
#1) That legality = morality
I'm not saying that you can't believe that, I'm just saying that morality being totally subjective its a ridiculous argument.
#2) That breaking the law is always a bad thing and should always be punished.
As such I have provided the above examples to illustrate that I don't believe that to be true. I am attempting to separate the legal argument from the moral argument.
And yet another word from our sponsors
