I still can't believe no one has mentioned the time/labor aspect of this.
Someone was rationalizing that taking some pics were ok because they were just taking (electronically) them, not taking a physical print.
Taking someone else's work (physically or electronically) is still IN SPIRIT stealing. The victim's time and labor consumed to produce that work is what is actually being taken.
Do you provide free labor? especially so someone else can profit/use for their benefit?
software for example (like photographs) don't magically appear, someone had to work to produce them the same as a working producing a physical good.
IMHO
Give me your .jpg! What do you mean it's yours? Ultimately you are just giving me a set of 1's and 0's in a pre arranged order.....says the guy to the other guy who spent 8hrs arranging those 1's/0's just right so to speak......
