Re: If it's easy to break into your house, it's OK then?

said by elios:

its as much stealing as asking youtube for a video
Again, this is the mentality of "if it's easy to take, it's legal".

The YouTube case is completely different. YouTube's business model IS to make the videos freely available, and they make money on advertising.

you do not seem to know how the net works do you?
let me help
if i send a request for a file to a server
and that server sends me want i ask for back
no law has been broken that server did exactly what its admins told it to do

if you dont want people using your service that are not intended to you need to protect it

for god sakes at lest put a password on it if not more

most of the steams off that are available to any one that as basic cable so imo its not even copyright infringement

maybe you could make a case for theft of service for the bandwidth used but you would have track down EVERY user that didnt pay for the service and good luck doing that

as i have said once on the net always on the net no putting it back now other then to secure it

Yes, I know how the Web works.

Let me try one more time.

Just because someone told you how to take it, that doesn't mean it's legal.

Someone figured out a non-obvious deep URL that loads a file that has embedded in it other deep URLs that, if manually cut/pasted, bypass the signup/authentication system on this website. That is far from "I just accessed a Web page".

And, you insist on blaming them for not having strong enough security. And that there's nothing wrong with bypassing it. Because, it's "easy".

And, by the way, programs carried on basic cable, or over-the-air, are still copyrighted. This is yet another "if it's easy to take, then there's nothing wrong with taking it" mentality at work.
