You shouldn't vilify breaking one, but rationalize (and possibly even encourage) breaking another just because you don't see the harm in it.
If you feel you should be free to pick and choose which rules you're going to abide by and which ones you're going to break, don't you think others deserve that same latitude?

I don't believe I've ever claimed to be the "definitive authority" on it, DD. You know why I'm so vehemently against copyright infringement: because it hurts me personally. I will continue to "campaign" against it, for that reason. Of course you're free to hold a different opinion, but I'm going to continue to say that I strongly disagree with you!
