Imagine a cinema has a peeping view from the outside. Is it immoral to peek through the view? I.e: is it considered stealing to do that?

If instead of the cinema, the place was a classroom. Or a workshop, are you considered a theive?

Imagine owning a farm where you grow the same crop as your neighbor’s farm, the only difference is that you’re using natural seeds, but your neighbor is using genetically modified seeds that were licensed from a mega corp. Wind comes along and your neighbor’s plants cross pollinate with yours, you know, nature being nature. Guess what, you’re now being sued by the mega corp for stealing their IPO.

And that actually happens smh
