This is depressing, but I'll hope it's just a knee-jerk reaction, and that people will reconsider after they have a chance to think about it. Presumably the audience does not support informing because it believes that cracking and leaking are not a crime on the same level as , for example, child abuse or murder. Of course, people who participate in illegal activities often have no trouble rationalizing or excusing their actions. And for those who will wave the flag for "civil disobedience", I'll say right now that I have no problem supporting the idea of civil disobedience, as long as you realize the consequences of civil disobedience have typically been conviction and punishment. It's the conviction and punishment that drives public opinion to change the law, not whining.
