OK, thanks for clearing that up. Like I implied, it's different because the mens rea is different. I'll happily take a photo of the Eiffel Tower, but I wouldn't

OK, thanks for clearing that up. Like I implied, it's different because the mens rea is different. I'll happily take a photo of the Eiffel Tower, but I wouldn't go up and steal the lights off it and display them elsewhere. Stealing is primarily about denying someone else access to/use of something. Copyright infringement does not do that, in general. In your opinion it's it always wrong to 'take without paying'? Land? Air? Food? ... Culture? Where do you draw your lines.
