That may or not be so. However the person who breaks the law may not
be in a position to judge if what they do is immoral or harmful - and
it is not their position to decide this for everyone else.


Infringing copyright is not breaking the law (unless done as part of
commerce.)


Fair comment. Yes. This is initially a 'civil' area, so would become a
question of 'damages' in the event of a suit being successful.

Slainte,
