Yes, and it's *that* problem I'm looking for a solution to.
But since you've created that problem for yourself by your own
voluntary choice to honor copyrights, you shouldn't be asking others
for a solution.
In most countries of the world, including the ones all of us live in,
you don't have a choice whether to honour copyright law. If you do
not honour copyrights, you're breaking the law. In many countries,
even encouraging people to break the law is a crime. If you choose to
live in such a society, the least you can do is adapt to it, no matter
how ridiculous you may consider it. I would certainly be a lot
happier if you stopped this kind of behaviour in public.
