Kennyc, can you restate your position? Do you still think that copying is theft and that it is a moral absolute (despite the fact that it was only recently in human history that this concept has come to exist)? I don't want to over-state your position.

Yes copying my property is theft if it is done without my permission. The ideas I create and instantiate are my property, it is my right to share or not just as I would with land I own or physical products of that land.
