This is not about stealing or piracy it's about controlling what I do with what I own.

@gergroy

I'm talking about companies trying to control our use of their products. Our rights and freedoms do not have be taken away to stop piracy.

I don't really see what rights or freedoms they are stealing.  You can still bring your wii to your friends house to share games with them, it's more of a hassle yes, but they aren't holding a gun to your head and telling you that you can't do it. 

Fact of the matter is, technology is changing.  That means the way entertainment and content is delivered to us changes as well.  30 years ago you couldn't go on the internet and download movies and games at will, so the laws were different.  However, now you can.  We have more access now to pirated products than ever before, how is that taking away our rights and freedoms? 

Honestly, I think there needs to be more done so that we can get back to how hard it was to pirate things 30 years.
