Have you engaged in the particular behavior the person I said that of? If you haven't, then no it dosn't apply to you. I'd suggest you have a guilty conscience if you think it does. (I doubt you're a multiple personality either, they're not that common)
I would point out that Contractual law is civil, not criminal - it's a simply innacurate to compare the situation to criminal law. And what does Piracy have to do with Unauthorised Copying? I don't see any ships arround here, can we please use the correct term and stop feeding a certain counter-culture which revels in using it as a term of defiance.

Please look up "Privity". I have no standing to file a civil case on the matter, because I am not affected by their action. And there are several cases which have been filed in the UK...one may be getting a date as early as febuary. The case is that they did not mod their Xbox, incidentally (it was new), and were still banned, and bluntly it's a strong case.
Regardless of all that, a million boxes useable only for pirate games are going to do a lot of damage to the industry in the next few years.
Hellmark - Oh? Case numbers please.
