I wouldn't argue against that. I am not suggesting that it has anything
whatsoever to do with just or unjust revenues due to Microsoft.

There are many times when you know what is right and legal and what is
not. It's what you choose to do that defines your character, sets an
example for your children and to the community. If fear of enforcement
is what motivates your decisions then you are justifying those who
insist on DRM.
