We [you and I, and others] have had prior discussions regarding this
unlawful activity before in this group when you have attempted to foster
this idea before, I see you have once again consciously determined to
further this piracy/criminal activity in this group once again. This would
appear to indicate that:
1. You are suffering from some metal disorder under which the realities of
the world are beyond your comprehension due to some physical or other mental
limitation/disability.
2. That you are under the influence of some drug or drugs which severely
impairs your ability to comprehend worldly affairs, legal rights of others,
and legal ramifications.
3. That you intend to further and foster this criminal activity in hopes
that the more parties engaging in this activity, the harder it becomes to
prosecute the individuals so in engaged.
4. That you have NO respect for Law, illegalities of the activities,
personal property rights, copyright, and other as relate. Which would
indicate that you also have ZERO respect for anyone on this planet except
for yourself.
5. That ALL of the above applies, and that you also have ZERO concern for
the fact that it is because of this, that others of the people are subjected
to increasingly restrictive Laws, Rules, Codes, and other which in essence
tends to remove their rights, invades their privacy, removes their
protections, and causes other legal ramifications and further restrictions
placed against them.
You, personally, were previously directed to review the Laws, legal
agreements, EULAs, and other applicable statutes, Treaties, and other which
define this activity you suggest as criminal, throughout the world..
Other discussions have been held in the numerous legal groups [to which you
were also directed] and other which might contain these types of
suggestions. Regardless, the activities you suggest ARE illegal and criminal
in nature. Nothing will change the stature of your suggestion to legal or
remotely acceptable behavior.

And the numerous other sites, forums, government, and court materials [U.S.

merely inappropriate, you give the deliberate false impression that it is
not illegal or.criminal in stark contrast to the acual Laws and other which
control the matters.
