    You know very well it is NOT ok... It is stealing.

    But how can they freely do that and make tutorials on that?

      You know, if I was a betting person, I could bet one million dollars you would post a reply starting with "but"...

      And usually, that's the end of my willingness to help anybody that receives a fact-based, reasonable advice and then they try to go around it to find a loophole. There is no BUT!

      Just because an idiot is doing it - it doesn't make it legal or ethical. End of story.

      It is your personal choice on which side of the marketing you want to stay.

        I once had a trial where the plaintiff testified that she believed everything she read or saw in the media. "They couldn't say it if it wasn't true" was her statement.

        She lost.


        Whenever there is a forum thread "Is this legal ...." the forum software should automatically post the response "No" and close the thread. Rule of thumb: if you have to ask - don't do it.

    the same way someone can speed down the highway at 100mph. They might get away with it for awhile but eventually they'll get a ticket

    I bought that guide and told them exactly that. But some people don't care about ethics and how other people perceive them. It's all about the money to them. One day life will bite them on the ass!

      No, it's just simple, stupid theft.
