Whistler · **Re: Arrests made in HL2 code theft. -** 15-06-2004

well, but I don't like the word "theft", I would prefer the phrase "copyright infringement", since Valve haven't "lost" any of the source code, they still have all the source code; it's just copied illegally.

and of course the infringement is wrong and should be punished because it will be unfair to Valve if their work can be copied as anyone wishes, but I don't think it worths a damnation like that.
