You clearly haven’t read the full essay.

I have, but the moment I got to the Napster Wars part I realised that the article is nothing more than the "eat the rich" rant. I despise the music labels and all the crap that happened in late 90s but it's not an excuse to go "over the law" just because you think the law is bad. I know, there were many implications of piracy that shaped the current landscape of music industry but still, just because you don't agree with the existing law, it doesn't mean you should "work" around it.

Again, if you're unhappy with record label, vote with your wallet and buy from the independent ones. The more people to vote with the wallet (in the way you misunderstood) the less power major companies will have.

it’s not an excuse to go “over the law” just because you think the law is bad.... but still, just because you don’t agree with the existing law, it doesn’t mean you should “work” around it.

Then what's a good reason to go around the law? It'd be pointless to go around a law you do agree with.

Clearly you're refusing to understand the phrase.
