File sharing has become a bigger issue since interference of SOPA and PIPA with piracy and illegal downloading. A lot of people are upset at the governments involvement with internet activity, and I can't really blame them. For years, people have been using the internet as a source for music, movies. software programs and more. A majority of people have illegally downloaded something at one point or another. File sharing isn't right, but I don't feel it is wrong either. One could say that my opinion on the issue is mixed, undecided even. Now if you look at file sharing from the point of view from the person producing the art/song/movie or whatever, then I can see the wrong in file sharing. Some people would feel that it's their own creation and others shouldn't be taking it illegally. Personally though, as long as there is some clarification that it is my creation, I wouldn't mind the sharing of my creation. However, if I have something that is intended for personal use or if someone in general has something intended for personal use then file sharing is wrong. If something isn't meant to be spread around then I feel that it shouldn't be spread. It would be morally wrong to share someone's personal files.
