I still stand by my premise. The man is ADVERTISING HIMSELF. If he's doing advertising of copying games and selling them (The other two things are completely legal) he is either one of this things:
1. He is ignorant of the law: In that case is just mean to report him... And don't compare this with other illegal things, this world is not black and white...
2. He is stupid or not afraid: In this case, it will be messy and too complicated so it's not worth it.
3. He's smart enough, and he already knows how to fight this. They're too many loopholes that a good lawyer can use in this matter. In this case it will be pointless...
Either way, it's not worth it...
------------------------------------------------------------
Now that i ended the practical way, i'm analyzing the moral grounds, so the question is: Is it the right thing to do??? i say yes, but only if it is for the right reasons, if i am bringing down a big fish that really hurts the industry because i care about it, and not just because i'm mad at people getting for free the things that i buy, then it's good, bringing down some puts that sells like 10 copies a month leave him alone, also the cops wouldn't care, now, when that man becomes a medium to big fish then it's right to do it... But again, for the right reasons... |
It's completely worth it to report him. Even if he does have some sort of loophole, chances are he's only going to be able to abuse it once.
|
Not necesarilly, if with that loophole he's declared not guilty and wins the case, he can do the same thing again and again and they can't accuse him because that qualifies as double jeopardy... Now to catch that guy again he must be doing something different to build it up as a new case with new evidence...
Now, if he doesn't get away and he's declared guilty or gets a settlement that's different...
