Personally I am all for it. There is something called intellectual property. But that can only last for a short time. It is just a matter of if one man can conceive, the other would in due course.
Now, in the short term, yes we should respect the rights. That is why what we learn in this forum is for learning. Anyone who uses it for financial/commercial gain violates the ethos, and should be condemned.
If you use the forum for personal educational reason, then I think whatever is posted is like a friend sharing a book. If not, please pay to the original author/developer.
