I know someone that uses TVpass.org and thinks that it’s not stealing because it’s a .org and “they only give those org websites out to good people” It made me smile.
Theft has a very specific definition, critically it requires the taking of something so that someone else is permenantly deprived of the thing. When something is cloned or copied its not theft, its all intellectual law driven so copyright and trademark breaches. No one is deprived of the product, only potentially the payment for a service.

What is stealing, let’s be honest.
Is charging a crazy amount for forced programming laced with massive amounts of advertising considered stealing? I think so.
As far as Im concerned copying something is not theft.
