Why do you think code can't be stolen the same way as music?

[–] Scipitie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 15 hours ago

The other way around: music can't be stolen - piracy is not theft and the concept of property is only beneficial to the ones writing the rules and not the actual creators (just check Disneys copyright law adjustments to extend protectiond in heir various "intellectual properties".

"Theft"/stealing is the wording the music industry established when media downloads started ("you wouldn't download a car"? Fuck em, yes I would).
