Look, of course it's possible to find workarounds. But the issue is still valid. There's a huge problem with work ethics. People too often feel they have the right to steal whatever they like, unless of course I can stop them. And the issue is still there. Our justice system does not do justice. I don't want to create an 1984 work envorinment. I do want to trust the people I'm working with. And if they - after signing all the good contracts - in an environment that is built on mutual trust, they steal my property, I want the justice system to do justice.
"people too often feel they have the right to steal whatever they like, unless of course I can stop them." - so as long as THEY are powerless (or proportionately dis-empowered at least), YOU can reap the upside of risks taken where the downside has been externalised? Sounds like "theft" to me! Who exactly do you want the justice system to do "justice" for?
