You're right, I didn't want to get into a philosophical argument on technicalities.
That wasn't the point. The point is that a lot of these technicalities are self constructed justifications. Illusions and lies we tell ourselves to cope with our imperfection. I conflate because I don't care about the technicalities, I'm talking about something primal and simple.
In its most simplistic form, this is what I mean:
If I create a work of art to make money or even for just limited showings and you copy it and distribute it without my permission, than you are doing something wrong and you know it.
That's all. My argument is saying that anything on top of that is an attempt to justify your actions.
