Quoting Dan Ravicher:
"I'd also note a very stark difference between code theft and copyright infringement. The former connotes an intentional act of taking from another with malicious intent. That's a very very serious charge to
make against another and one should be darn sure to have evidence to support such a claim before making it. Copyright infringement is a much broader category of behavior that can include actors who had entirely good faith intentions to respect the rights of another, despite in the end not succeeding in that aim."
