Re: Thanks Cabal! Of course you haven't brought up ethics. That would address the core issue of the story and we can't have that can we.
Yet again, I restate my point hoping to find that magical combination that will dawn the moment of comprehension for you.
Point w/ analogy.
You beat Wife = Bad.
You pay neighbor to beat wife = Good.
That is Cabal's logic. No, Cabal didn't bring up beating his wife. That is why it is an analogy.
In this analogy we change the source of the abuse from you to your neighbor. Did the ethics of effecting a wife beating change?
Cabal's logic says Yes. As long as someone other than you beats your wife, it is a good and ethical thing to do.
I say No. Making sure you wife gets beat is bad, no matter who is doing the beating.
Can you follow that or do I need to type it in crayon?
You see, many of us here feel Big Media's attempt to pursue a financial goal by planting Malware is unethical.
Cabal's point is that as long as it isn't law enforcement it is ethical.
I say it doesn't matter who does it, it is unethical.
Did Cabal mention Ethics? No, and neither would you. That would bring the core issue of the story into focus. That would delineate the right and wrong of Big Media's actions.
I suppose you figure that as long as you keep derailing the dialog, you can avoid talking about right and wrong. That might be a pretty spiffy way to get out of defending Big Media's scummy methods.
I suppose if I were a shill for Big Media, I might do something like that too.
