You are missing the point entirely. It is called "FREE TV" by the
thieves BECAUSE of the COST to THEM for the service.

I am not missing the point. The thieves are rationalizing as Gary said.

You guys are killing me. No one is rationalizing anything. They are
attaching a practical name to something.
Hot TV sounds dumb. Stolen TV sounds stupid. Rip Off TV is reserved
for describing the providers, what else is left?
Given it is against the law, do you really expect people to come right
out and implicate themselves with a poorly chosen name?
I never liked 'testing'. I'm glad you guys have beat them people up so
bad they now use free tv like everyone else.

All the zealots, all the thieves and all the on the fence people know
what 'Free TV' is a euphemism for.

Funny thing about all this is neither of you have a problem with
people breaking the US and Canadian laws regarding 'GRAY market'
(LMFAO) subscriptions.

Show me one time that I have ever said anything in defense of gray market.

The thieves are rationalizing. If they had any cajones at all they would not seek
politically correct terms for their activity. There is a difference between a service
being free and its being stolen. My analogy of the mall parking lot fits the
situation. Those cars are not free. To be free the person providing the service or the
property must will willing to give it away. Free is a two sided coin. For something to
be free there is a prerequisite that there is no charge for it.

Direct me to one US law or FCC regulation that prohibits gray market. I have looked
for one and I cannot find one. I do not know if it is legal or not. This is precisely
why I avoid discussions of gray market. You are LYFAO at your own imagination because
I have made not statements for or against gray market.

If they had any concerns about implicating themselves it would be to their advantage
not to discuss the activity in public.

That is because, at least, the provider gets paid, unlike when you
steal, they don't.
I do, BTW, have a problem being ignorant as to why they simply cannot
openly have that choice (namely those that equate the Canadian
government with certain socialist or religious regimes that ban
satellite TV)..

I don't understand either. I wonder why Canada allows it citizens
unfiltered internet. What will happen when all TV comes over it?

Go to www.sho.com and see what happens when a Canadian tries to get US
content over the net.
