It actually doesn't matter at all if literally everyone in this thread agrees with you. That doesn't make you any more right. If everyone in this thread agreed with you that the sun revolves around the earth, you'd still be wrong. Of course, this information is all contained within that link I posted that you so thoughtfully ignored, as if that was relevant to pointing out the holes in the point you were making. Imagine that.

P.S. I just randomly polled 1000 of my coworkers and they all agreed that copyright infringement isn't stealing. Isn't it amazing how personal, unfalsifiable anecdotes aren't actually worth anything if you just use your brain

I checked the link, yet it did not really address the questionof whether emulation was theft or not. You're committing the logical fallacy of an appeal to authority, implying that a well established institution backs your side without any proof of such.

PS: I don't believe you. Not about the co-workers thing that seems utterly legit. I just don't believe that you are using your brain.

Now we're equating emulation to theft? Huh. That's a new one.

I'm not appealing to authority. I'm not asking you to take my word on it. The court has ruled that copyright infringement is not stealing. I have linked to that twice above, and I don't care to do so again. You're just ignoring the evidence I provided because you don't like it.
