Okay, but what you believe and what the law states are mutually exclusive. Wouldn't you agree? Go ahead and hack into Dish or DirecTV, get caught and try the "I don't believe that the law I broke is valid" argument...

That's not the point ... the point I was making is that the government should NOT be making laws that infringe on the usage of the public airwaves just so some company can make a buck. If a company wants to use the airwaves .... more power to them. If a company does not want people to view the content of their signal I BELIEVE it is THEIR duty to ensure that it is encrypted in such a way that an unauthorized user CAN NOT decode it. To me ... using the government to help them save a few bucks on encryption is unethical especially when it restricts me from seeing what I am being radiated with in MY own house. That use of government in that manner in my view makes the government a businss partner with the DTV industry. It is the PUBLICS airwaves and it is beamed into MY home. Passing laws that restrict my ability to view something in my home is repulsive to me.
