I understand. If you'll notice, my post was a response to someone who stated they did it on purpose, not by accident. The thing is, we have a sheriff a county over that is basically wiping the floor with people for this crime over and over, it seems like every few months there is a new story in the paper with 20 or so guys in deep doo-doo and I can't see how he differentiates between uploaders or downloaders, he looks for anyone and everyone that he can catch with evidence. So when I read this thread and all these guys, I get a little worried for them, not judgemental. I am worried that for such a dumb, thoughtless act they could face serious consequences. So, please excuse my prostelytizing, it's really only meant to be a danger flag. And I don't to plan to wave it again.
