In some US jurisdictions, theft below some dollar value is considered not worth prosecuting, i.e. legal. It is not as though Amazon is really going to miss one copy of Zelda, so it's morally not too bad. > I wouldn’t call stealing, even a high effort one, a loophole any more than I’d call shoplifting a life hack. I sort of agree with your equating these, except I think they are both valid.
