It's sort of like saying the ownership of a gun makes you a murderer.

It's sort of like saying the ownership of a gun makes you a murderer.
- bonzini 5y agoMore like a gun made of soap, as in "Take the money and run".
- dane-pgp 5y agoThat analogy would work if countries with large numbers of privately owned handguns were as safe as (otherwise comparable) countries where such guns were banned. I think we can agree at least that countries which ban communication tools have worse human rights records than countries which don't restrict them as much. Also, I don't dispute the media industry's premise that a government which had complete control over all software installed on people's computers could decide to reduce the amount of copyright infringement.
