Sorry, cmbs, but speaking for myself, the same moral code that prevents me from taking copyrighted works without paying for them, also (among other things) prevents me from trying to force everyone else to comply with that code in every wise.

MobileRead is primarily a discussion based community, that means we discuss things, and sometimes they're things that many, or even most of us don't like much, but we hold the right of free speech in pretty high regard. We would also consider forbidding the mere mention of such things (as you seem to want us to do) to be pretty firmly contrary to that freedom.

You are similarly at liberty to believe or not, as you choose, our statements that MobileRead does not condone "piracy."

We draw a line at actively distributing and openly condoning tools that only support "piracy." Could that line be drawn elsewhere? Certainly it could: it's a judgment call. We draw it, in good faith, in the best place we can, trying to balance the various abstract ideals that bear on the matter. That's something else you'll just have to decide for yourself whether you'll choose to believe or not.
