Re: Jail
Wow, way to completely miss the mark with the analogy. And, in fact, many of your points are completely wrong.
First off, the courts have clear definitions of stalking. Private investigators are legal, and have clear codes. Observing someone is not an illegal activity.
Now, if the PI broke into the spouse's residence, and accessed personal files, then they could be charged, and the information would be thrown out.
As far as "you can't go to court and say oh he spied on me illegally after I stole his music collection", um, yes you can.
How do you think people get off on Warrant technicalities? When the police search property, they have a specific scope. If they exceed their scope, charges are routinely dropped. And if they don't have a warrant, they are almost certainly dropped, and would be thrown out in court, without question.
Paying someone to hack a computer is soliciting an illegal activity. Doesn't matter what the rationale 
Unfortunately, like the MPAA, you seem to think that alleged 'pirates' should have no rights. We afford more rights to rapists & murderers, but download a song without paying, and the end will justify the means.
