Show me where I have done something wrong. I am not seizing anything
by taking what is freely given. Make sense. I showed in another post that
there is nothing wrong with decompilation under GPL. If there is nothing wrong
with decompilation and the code is 100% GPL then there would be nothing wrong
with distribution either. That's not taking the law into your own hands, that
exercising your rights.

And by the way, it is not more immoral for a single person to take the
law into there own hands than a government power. That is just ridiculous.
Governments are immensely more evil when they wield tyranny over
countless lives than what a single person could ever do. Do the math.
