how do you equate cheating in an exam with improving on a technolgy for example or new improved way of producing food in farming :konfused:

Ak47, leave your talibanism alone for a second, and think of the average software programmer, who busts his brains writing the source code for a software, and getting nothing in return, but the thought of his software running around, being pirated, like muftaz like you… THATS WRONG…

ak47 you should read my post before you comment.

If somebody invents software and i buy i can do what i like with it simple as that.

And secondly how much bootleg software you got on ur computer :confused:

This just shows your mentality… Btw, all the good software is developed by the kuffar, why do you use it then? I thought it was forbiddin for ya, LOL

You remind me of the large number of mollahs in Pakistan these days, watching (you know what) :wink:

Hazrat! if u ever get time, u should try to read the agreement which comes with the software. You rarely ever are allowed to BUY a software. In most case, you are just getting a LICENSE to use it for specific purpose (as agreed by the user when he or she opens the package. And it is similar to renting something with just one upfront payment. You CAN*NOT* do ANYthing you like with it.

Ofcourse, if you disagree with this kinda license agreement, you are free NOT to get it, and instead write your own. If you decide to write your own software (or to develop anything in general), feel free to make it available for people to copy around and not to compensate you anything for your time and investment.

Aaamm … am I missing something here ?

Correction: You don’t invent software, you develop it. You say that infront of my Lecturer and you are definitely gonna get thrashed :smiley: , leaving alone the fact that you’ve gone through alot of that already :hehe:
DROP YOUR WEAPONS ak47, YOU HAVE BEEN SURROUNDED … :mocking: I like saying this u know :biggthumb
