#1 Somehow I've never been comfortable with the concept of "stealing" computer files. Granted that the COPYING may be unauthorized but I always picture stealing as removing something such that the original owner is left without it.

Maybe that's what comes of spending too much time as a Systems Auditor. In any case UEA would definitely get a full handshake for this one (i.e. rating of 5 where the best is 1 on a scale from 1 - 5)
