Not that I give a rat's ass about the cost of software that I will never
buy, but ... how on /earth/ can this activity be illegal?
There's a very healthy market for exactly that same kind of thing with
imported /cars/ in the UK, but I don't see the Old Bailey /prosecuting/
anyone over it.
Bizarre!
It's like saying "it's illegal because Microsoft don't like it".
I'm sure.
