You know what would suck? If he used his daddy's PC to hack it.. :D

anyway glad I don't live in california cause apparently, buying a piece of hardware for $300 does not mean you own it and can do what you like with it, under California Law... >_>


true story -- i made a copy of your house key.  it's only a copy so it's not stealing and thus completely legal.  being the the freedom fighter i am i distributed that key to everyone in your neighboorhood.  how was i suppose to know that the guy who has been sent to jail 3 times already would use that key to break into your house, steal your shit, and rape your wife.  i mean, as i handed out the keys i told him not do that so i am of course completely blameless.

really, when you think about it this hole thing is your fault.  you should have known i was going to try and make copies of your household protection mechanisms.  you really should have had a more secure house.  i hope you learned your lesson.


best post ever.

 

...it seems to be quite popular with the anti-hacker crowd but i keep coming back to this thread to see if any of the pro-hacker crowd are going to respond.  looks like they will not be doing that...

Probably because it's an illogical strawman arguement.  You are equating actual loss of items, with zero loss of property.  If people had "Magic copy beams" that let them copy anything in my house for free... I'd let people in my house 24-7.   I'd solve world hunger.   Or at least local hunger.

That said, I don't pirate, and games are much more trivial.

Anyone who doesn't let anyone magic copy their items in the real world I'd class a grade A asshole though.

no, it's your stupid "magic copy beams" that illogical bullshit.  when a game developer makes a game it cost MILLIONS of dollars.  MILL-A-FUCKING-IONS.  your magic copy beam means that after all of those dollars in investment they can't get any returns.

you see the thing is..i work for a software company (outside games mind you).  without protections of our software, we loose the millions of dollars we spent developing the software and millions in the investment developing the ideas that lead to our software.  that means i have no job and therefore no food/shelter/medicine/what-have-you.

and that is what makes all of those hackers out ther grade A assholes.
