    There are parallels

    Content and money may not be the same thing but come on, there are similarities relevant to the discussion.

    Money is copyable. There is nothing stopping people from copying it except law enforcement. Content is copyable. There is nothing stopping people from copying it except law enforcement.

    We seem to all agree that copying money is bad. Some people disagree on whether or not copying content is bad but it's not unreasonable to put forward the idea. If we can all agree that not copying one easily copyable thing is a reasonable idea (money) that maybe other easily copyable things should not be copied (content).

    I'm not saying I agree with that idea but it's certainly not unreasonable to notice that there exists other things in people's every day lives that they could easily copy but don't.
