| It's quite a different story going after a trafficker (especially one so brazen as to use ebay/craigslist) than to try to entrap individual studio owners that might not have full control over what's on their machines, what freelance engineers bring in, etc. I'm not trying to apologize for the pirates, but this is certainly not the way to do things, as I explained in prior posts when this came up.
I think it's pretty pitiful that people are rooting for others to face large civil penalties because they view them as unfair competition (!). I mean, seriously. You compete on who has the most plugins? And want to bust each other? It's as if you've eaten all the grubs and roaches and are now turning to cannibalism. |
