Answer:

It is considered an act of copyright infringement.

Explanation:

Under the law, copyright is a right acquired by the producer of a work, whichever it may be, which gives ownership to the person who produces it and the right for that person to determine, under the law, if, and how, his/her work may be reproduced and distributed to others. When a person, other than the owner of a work protected by copyright laws, copies, distributes, sells, or in any form uses, said work without authorization from the owner, he/she is comitting an act of copyright infringement, also known as piracy, and can be held accountable before the law. In this case, Ezekiel, whatever his reasons, is incurring in a copyright violation as he is reproducing a product over which he has no rights, no ownership, and if caught, he may face even penal charges.

Which political group seeks to expand liberty above all other principles and wishes to minimize government intervention in the e
alexandr1967 [171]

The libertarian political group. All libertarians have a conception of personal autonomy that focuses on civil liberties and a reduction or elimination of the state.

Libertarians <u>do not believe in state authority and power. They seek political freedom and autonomy, emphasizing freedom of choice, voluntary association and individual judgment. They argue that where there is a government, it should not violate the rights of any individual (the right to life, the right to freedom of expression and action, and the right to property).</u>

Libertarians do not believe in the omnipotent state and defend the rights of the individual. That means all individuals have the right to exercise exclusive dominion over their own lives, and have the right to live in the manner they choose, as long as they do not interfere with the equal rights of others.

<em>In other words, people should not be forced to sacrifice their lives and property for the benefit of others. They should be left free by the government to deal with each other as free traders (free market).</em>

Eddi Din [679]
The government may be violating the Fifth Amendment by trying to prosecute Mary and Bob again.
The Fifth Amendment states (among other things) that a person can be tried only once in federal court for the same offense. Given that Mary and Bob were already prosecuted for identity theft and won the case due to lack of evidence, the government can try to prosecute them again, but it will be violating the Fifth Amendment in doing so.
