IANAL, but I don't think that's how it works. Why the hell do you keep saying that? There *are* lawyers who have said that what Tivo did was legal. They were the FSF's own lawyers. So now you're saying "I am not a lawyer, but that's not right". So you're trying to state some legal point, admitting that you're not a lawyer, and admitting that actual real-life lawyers disagree with you? So please explain why the *hell* you would expect us to take your points seriously?
