Disagree. Copying can't be stealing when the owner still has possession. People copy each other all the time in differing contexts. Treating information the same as physical property doesn't work when information need not be scarce and copying it costs virtually nothing. IP law should only exist to the extent it incentivizes innovation more than it hinders collaboration. Everyone is receiving the dividend of knowledge sharing with those that came before us from recent to ancient history. Excessive barriers slows us down.
