Regarding illegal content and Launchpad Answers

Hello,

(This may be a duplicate of https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/50252)

I'm writing this question because i'm watching the questions asked about the Wine project, and thus, we often have users asking how to run particular games. This week, there have been two different people asking how to run games that they claim to be illegaly downloaded.

I'm not willing to help them. I'm not willing to see them helped, either. Not at all.

Exemples :

Nowadays, illegal downloading is used as a pretext to vote properly astounding laws in certain countries. I'm very concerned about that and I think the *least* legal sites should do is *banning* people who openly ask for help in order to use illegally obtained copyrighted content.

I do NOT understand that it is not stated anywhere in launchpad's terms of use that people should not ask for such kind of help, and I do not understand either that this is not listed as a reason to reject a launchpad question.

Letting them post such a kind of questions and having no mean to tell them they're breaking the rules is quite bad for the community's reputation, imo, as it means we have no problem with copyright violation (which is slightly different from struggling for an opensource and free software world, and for digital content interoperability).

I'm looking forward to see Launchpad take this phenomenon into account before it grows.

Cordially, SD.
