You haven't been reading this thread have you?
We are discussing Shmokes and his ethical responsibilities, with regard to iPad jailbreaking.
Have I mentioned anyone else? No? Hmmm. This is a hypothetical discussion.
Maybe you need to get some reading glasses, or a good night's sleep.

:laugh2: There is nothing wrong with your sense of humour Shmokes. Perhaps you have devote some of that energy into something that is credible to this argument. Like how Ipad Jailbreaking is not DMCA actionable under the given circumstances.
You must have a set of law books you can borrow from the library.
Donkbaca:
The biggest flaw with your argument ark is that there is the presumption of innocence we have here in this country. It is you that have the burden of proof to show that jailbreaking an ipod is illegal. If Apple were to come down on Shmokes for jailbreaking an ipad, they couldn't just file a lawsuit that said, "He jailbroke his ipad, he is violating the DMCA, he has to prove he is not breaking the law." Quite the contrary, the burden would be on Apple to show that the what he is doing is in violation of the DMCA and the DMCA applies to the matter at hand. You have failed to do that. Shmokes doesn't have to prove anything is legal, someone has to prove that what he is doing is illegal, and frankly you just have not convinced me, or others that is the case

He's talking about your veiled threat to turn me in to Apple's legal dept. Which, of course I welcome and think is utterly hilarious. Still, it is kind of tasteless. As much as we argue around here, we're a pretty close-knit community. Threatening to do something to bring serious real-world consequences to someone is pretty lame. While the reality of your threat is laughable, the sentiment is pretty ugly.

I know what he is implying in that comment above Shmokes. Like Duh! Again you fail to read anything I post, you just skim it and make yourself look superior, if I make an error. That is lame.
Sounds like you are regretting your actions. I do not think you should. If you think I am going to turn you in to the Apple Cops, then you are one mixed up dude. I just want the answer to my question, which you evaded time and time again, choosing to berate my responses than giving hard facts. Then you go and quote from some website, which was quoted from another website. Not very good factual references to your statements are they?
Then you start making that weeping statement above. Personally I think you have lost the plot. But do not worry I shall get the answer to my question, without your input. Then when I get it, you can start denying it all over again. Nobody gives a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. You haven't committed a crime, but if you have circumvented the iPad you have an ethics issue. My guess jailbreakers represent 5% of the Apple user base. Either it promotes a product or kills it. But you think I am going to the cops about little old you?.... :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:
You are starting to sound bored and clueless. Sleepless nights can do that to a person. Still feeling guilty? Is your conscious bothering you yet? Awwww.
