  All laws are just words on peices of paper. Why should you care?

    This seems to interestingly prove the point made by the person this is in reply to. Breaking laws come with consequences. Not caring about a robots.txt file doesn’t. But maybe it should.

      My angle was more about all rules being social contructs, and said rules being important for the continued operation of society, but that’s a good angle too.

      Lots of laws don’t come with real punishments either, especially if you have money. We can change this too.
