Hi,

Just curious...As many of you know there's so many different preventative actions being taken to prevent music and movie piracy. How come (as far as I know) nothing is being done about software (computer applicatons and games) piracy? After all, so many people going to school (back to school) these days to be comptuer programmers / engineers and the like, and the software or game that they create gets distributed among several hundred thousand 'warez' boards...What's your thoughs on this? If someone were to go to school for programming what advice would you give to them? What a world we live in, let me tell you.

-Brian

That wouldn't be true even if SOPA wasn't shelved.

An interesting discussion on Hackernews (Do we own our Steam games? ) which discusses on the software license and legal aspects.
