Um, but actual Irish-Americans love eating corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick's day. It's racist to celebrate your heritage? Or just to try things from other people's cultures?

I'm saying the judge found that IA violated its own CDL, so even if its interpretation of the law was correct, the IA would still be liable.

Libraries do not make unlimited copies of books so everyone can check it out at the same time without wait. Obviously the EFF doesn't want to admit its client did that because it destroys their case, but that's what the judge found the IA stupidly did.

Donating to GIMP will not likely make it user-friendly enough to make me use it unless absolutely forced to. I would much rather donate to Pinta or Paint.NET or something where development would actually benefit me.

It's literally a victimless crime committed unintentionally. Most people oppose 12-year prison sentences for harmless accidents.
