Are you a thief?

I think that when they define "thief" as someone who will watch a TV show on Dailymotion when there's no other way to get it, they're going to be surprised how many people (especially schoolkids) are willing to say "Yes, I'm a thief."

The record and movie industry must be paying out of their asses to have this shit taught in schools.

Let's teach our kids the importance of making billionaires richer and not actual important stuff like checking facts or making a well informed decision when voting.

Absolute dystopian bullshit.

Perhaps there's a danger that, by normalising self-identification as a thief, campaigns like this might have unanticipated societal results.

I'd hate to see shoplifting/burglary/mugging stats climbing in a few years time.
