Yet those rules and regulations are in place now. If you do not wish to abide by them then work to change them or invent a time machine and go back in time to when the rules and regulations were not in place.
Again, arguing that file-sharing is the same as borrowing from the library because way back in the day there were no rules or regulations governing libraries doesn't make a lot of sense when taken in light of the fact that today there are rules and regulations in place.

Please provide link or quote to where I said that.

See above regarding whether or not I ever made the objection you claim I am making.

What you are guessing matters very little to me.
If file-sharing of copyrighted works is deemed to be legal in the future I have no problem with that at all.
In future, if you are going to address me in discussion, respond to my actual points rather than your assumptions and guesses about what you think I may mean by what I have never actually said. Your entire discourse with me in this thread has been based on your misinterpretations, assumptions and guesses about issues I have not even discussed.
