Can we not charge all of the ISPs involved with transporting stolen goods?

the mods knew what they were doing. difference between someone who builds a road and someone who drives a truck full of drugs on that road.

But is copying a copyrighted movie "stealing" in that it deprives the owner (who still has the movie) of profits of that movie?

Yes, potentially some people will go out to see the movie if they cannot pirate it. But not all. And it's hard to prove either way.

That's not the same as "stealing a car".

[thesimpsons1022]

didnt say anything about stealing a car?

I think he is referencing this old anti-piracy ad that used to air in movie theaters.

I guess the mods here aren't driving, but they did give the directions?

The moderators were making judgment calls on which drugs were not high quality enough, keeping only the drugs that met some minimum standard.

I am seriously struggling to understand the rationale for that.
