No one is stealing TVs by reading data being firehosed out of an open API. Just like your Wifi network name being broadcast is not theft of televisions.

- aaronem 13y agoI just knew some shallow oaf was going to take his finger out of his nose long enough to pick on my having included a stolen television in my example. True, no theft of a physical object occurs. But one would have to be either deliberately obtuse or abjectly stupid to ignore the legal commonality I used that example to demonstrate.
- streetnigga 13y agoWhat the fuck is your problem? You are calling people "children" and "shallow oafs." Stop being such a negative jerk when communicating with others. Edit: Thanks whoever down-voted the guy saying "fuck" but not the user injecting insults and slights. This HN community feels healthy and mature.
- aaronem 13y agoOh, dear. "Streetnigga" just can't deal with such an unfriendly tone.
- streetnigga 13y agoWhy would I? I didn't come here for unfriendly and insulting tones.
