    You might just end up getting sued for copyright infringement with that post

    Well, actually, piracy is one of the biggest opponents free and open source software has to deal with. At least in the superficial definition of it. As a result of piracy, BitTorrent is far less respected a distribution method than it should be. Thanks to piracy, people are not nearly as bothered spending $400+ for an operating system + an office suite as they should be, because so many people just pirate the stuff. Too many people who should know better it's all "free", so free software doesn't get that compelling hook it deserves.

    So unless Sourceforge has grown out of mud or something and the, err, bathtub (?!) represents a pirate ship, your analogy is flawed
