By the same argument, if stealing is illegal then that just means a few greedy people will have all the money. There is a kind of techie trope where the logical thinking of computer science is applied to the law in a more creative way.

I've been a proponent of copyleft for a long time but I'm not going to imply that the law as it stands condones piracy or plagiarism.
