Signing a typical software license agreement means betraying your neighbor: &ldquo;I promise to deprive my neighbor of this program so that I can have a copy for myself.&rdquo; People who make such choices feel internal psychological pressure to justify them, by downgrading the importance of helping one's neighbors&mdash;thus public spirit suffers. This is psychosocial harm associated with the material harm of discouraging use of the program.
