Until you are the one inventing something, going through all the trouble to bring it to market just to see someone copy it and take all your profits because they can sell it cheaper because they don't have to cover all the R&D costs... Nice...
Yes because you just stole what took other years to implement. That's what copyright is about. When you work years putting a book together, go through the pain of publishing it and then a group comes out, copies it and distributes it almost for free, you going to be happy with that?
It's only when someone breaks the law and it impacts you personally that you start opening your eyes? Crime starts somewhere. Living in SAP you should know that better than most.

Oh wait, I don't like the colours Mercedes 200e came out with this year, let me just pirate one.
Theft is theft. Pirating is criminal. It's only funny or somehow OK when you are not on the losing side. Strange how many South Africans are OK with pirating.
