Yeah WTF was that?

Coco: my point is, by the words you chose, you implied that all copying that contravened the permissions system was infringing on copyright. That is not the case.

Colette: I can pick locks in real life, I know how easy it can be to pick the typical lock. That's not the point. Computers copy data. That's what they do. That's the *only* thing they know how to do, really. You can't make a computer that doesn't copy data any more than you can make a knife that doesn't have an edge. It's just not possible.
