In other words, "fuck you, got mine" ?
- estomagordo 8y agoWhy would my completely reasonable action be interpreted as something rude? There's no "you" featured in my decision.

Harm to others in the future doesn't weigh as heavily as as immediate harm to myself now. We don't usually realize we're doing it, but I think we all do this. Using Google products is a very common example.
