Yes, but a very small percentage of people. But more people engage in
copyright infringement, not stealing, due to price considerations, and
draconian licensing.

Where do you live? Where do most of the people live where software
piracy is the worst?
Economic condition is certainly a major component of software piracy,
and only an idiot cannot see the reality of that.

A very negligable percentage will engage in softare piracy with a more
reasonable price point.

HUH? You and Crusty are the ones showing your insecurity, thinking the
worst of your fellow human beings.
A very small percentage are bad. The vast majority of people are good,
honest people.

LOL! What issue have I not stuck to? Your view that people are
basically evil?

You insult yourself with your own views. And you are trying to cover up
your own character flaws by attacking me for thinking that most people
are basically good.

You are an ass. Anyone that thinks that people are basically thieves
and unethical is an ass. It is your ego trip to help you to delude
yourself that you are better than most people, when in reality, you are

And here you demonstrate how you aren't better than the most people.
Most people in Newsgroups don't go around changing the words of other
