  • Do You Find Illegal Downloads Morally OK?

    A Danish study has found that 70% of us find downloading files illegally from the net to be morally okay. No shit, hey? But here’s the twist: the same study, conducted a decade ago, had the same results.

    The study, published by the Rockwool Foundation Research Unit, questioned participants on morals and ethics, and included discussion on which laws they believe are socially acceptable to break. You can read all their findings here, however, what is interesting to note is the fact that general morality levels have not dropped either in the last decade. Meaning, that as a society, humans in general haven’t become shittier than we already are. It’s just that most of us don’t have a problem with downloading. And it would seem no amount of money spent on adverts or threats is likely to change that.
