Stealing Is Wrong

These are a few of my favorite "Don't steal our bandwidth" pictures. Notice how they each have their own very different approach to the issue.

The "calling you a thief" approach. If they could legally get away with it, they would probably kill you.

The "If you wanna see the picture, visit our page" approach. They're certainly not making any accusations here. Just a friendly invitation to check out their website.

I call this the "conspiracy theory" approach. They're basically saying "The content just isn't here right now". Notice though the underlying suspicion implied by the "Authorization Failure" message at the bottom. So by connecting the two, we get "It's not here, but who are you anyway?". Someone appears to be a bit paranoid.
