Stonetools didn't do that. I did. I did it to point out the ridiculousness of conflating online piracy and online counterfeit drug sales. It made no sense to lump those together in a poll anymore than it made sense for me to lump piracy and pedophile stalkers together. Being ridiculous and laughable was the whole point.
I don't agree with stonetools on issues of this sort most of the time, but I still respect him(?), and don't want to see my words being used against/attributed to him. He never mentioned pedophilia.
