You could slippery slope that argument ad infinitum, though. Even the interpretation combined with the data mean nothing if you don't have intent. And even with intent you have to have a computer. And even with intent and computer it has to be reasonable that you could use the computer. Let's imagine I am laying in my bed by the computer completely unable to speak or move. I can only breathe. But, I intended to copy a rights-protected DVD and then fell ill for 10 years while I had everything in place to do it sitting right there beside me? Are you going to charge me as I think there in a semi-comatose state? What if I was copying a copy-protected DVD, but in got stuck in the process, while I laid in my bed in a coma? What if the coma started immediately before the computer started executing the copy, and my pet mouse stepped on the keyboard, starting the copy? What if both the pet mouse and I had the intent to copy the DVD? What if the pet mouse's friend was watching in a nearby corner and had egged the pet mouse to touch the keyboard knowing that the copy-protection would be circumvented, but the pet mouse had no intent to circumvent, but I did, and I fell into a coma prior to the enter key being pressed by the mouse? What if the mouse spontaneously combusted atop the keyboard, pressing that key that the other mouse and I intended to be pressed, and the other mouse was an illegal, but had applied for citizenship of both the U.S. and Britain simultaneously while holding a non-resident visa for Australia while vacationing in the states, and was smoking a cigar in an area clearly marked as non-smoking?

Haha, you don't need intent, you just need to joke about doing it online. Conspiracy to commit.
