Why do you hate property rights?

I'm not defending cheating in online games or interfering with Valve's service, but if you think the solution to stopping them is attacking "software hacking" in general as a concept, that juice ain't worth the squeeze. "Software hacking," fundamentally, is nothing more than modifying the operation of your computer, your property that you own. It's no different than buying a physical paper book and then writing notes in the margin.

If you're proposing disallowing people from doing that, you're attacking the concept of property rights itself.

    That would be absurd for me to suggest. I was not claiming that all “hacking” no matter how you define the word, as bad.

    I was just stating the source of the problem here. Everyone is really sensitive about the fact.
